Project background

Byron Shire Council has completed an investigation and concept design for a continuous cycleway from Byron Bay (Browning Street) to Suffolk Park (Clifford Street).

The Byron Bay to Suffolk Park Cycleway Investigation Report was developed by a specialist consultant in collaboration with Council staff under the guidance of the Transport Infrastructure Advisory Committee (TIAC). The investigation considered a range of options, including but not limited to:

• a continuous single, on-road cycleway on both sides of the road;
• a continuous dual lane on the Eastern side of the road; and
• a continuous dual lane on the Western side of the road.

The investigation resulted in a preferred option concept design that was developed to be the best and most cost-effective option to connect Byron Bay to Suffolk Park.

The Byron Bay (Browning St) to Suffolk Park (Clifford St) Cycleway Investigation Report (including the preferred option concept design) was on exhibition for public comment for a period of 28 days from 16th November to 14th December 2018.

The public exhibition period is now closed. Thank you for your feedback.
