Cyclists in Wyndham will soon have a new path to peddle, with construction of the Point Cook Bike Park underway.
The new bike park will add to existing facilities along Corporation Drive and feature a new shelter, a bike repair station, bike racks and drinking fountain.
Picnic facilities, extra seating, signage, trees and plants will also be part of the bike park which is part of Wyndham council’s Coastal and Marine Management Plan.
Construction of the $450,000 project is expected to be completed by the middle of this year.
Wyndham council’s Active City portfolio holder, councillor Peter Maynard, said the bike park would improve access to the coast and complement other upgrades nearby.
“These additions will provide locals, cyclists and walkers with an inviting area to stop and rest and is perfect for those using the Wyndham Bay Trail,” Cr Maynard said.
“The bike park also ties in with shared path upgrades council is delivering, and a boardwalk connecting Sanctuary Lakes to Saltwater Coast being delivered by Parks Victoria in 2023.”
