One of our Boroondara BUG members, John Parker, has raised
the issue of the lack of standardisation or official registration of Victorian trail
names. This is of concern as trails need to be identified on various occasions:
eg when contacting emergency services, when lobbying for council funding, and
on signage. We hope to interest Bicycle Victoria in taking up this issue I have
attached a listing of Victorian trails prepared by John. We would be interested
in any responses to this list. Do people accept the names used? Are there any
trails that should be added to the list? Does anyone have any suggestions about
how best to achieve the goal of standardising and registering these trail
names.
