The Minns Labor Government is progressing the revitalisation of Gosford\u2019s waterfront with a focus on enhancing public space and improving connectivity in the short term while providing opportunities for longer term investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following market sounding and feasibility studies on how to best revitalise Gosford\u2019s waterfront in line with the $8.5 million election commitment, the NSW Government is designing and costing an active transport shared pathway between Gosford and Point Clare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The shared pathway would cut the time to cycle and walk between the two destinations and improve connections further south to Tascott, Koolewong and Woy Woy via the Brisbane Water cycleway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Government will also prepare a targeted public domain plan and will deliver improvements to the public domain in the next 18 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From today, the community has an opportunity to say what features and projects they would like to see in the public domain plan and help prioritise their delivery on the Gosford Waterfront.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This could include features like better lighting and visibility, fitness equipment, children’s playground equipment, picnic tables and seating, or a boardwalk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
