PROJECT-MANAGED by Hornsby Shire Council and co-funded by the NSW Government, the unveiled works include the design and construction of a low-profile single span swing bridge for pedestrians.
Cherrybrook has welcomed connected walking track upgrades with sandstone steps, landscaping and environmental restoration works, complimented with wayfinding and directional signage.
This new iconic local asset will reconnect access between Keighran Place, Cherrybrook, and Fallon Drive, Dural.
The NSW Government contributed $1 million to the ‘Pyes Creek Elevated Walkway’ project, selected as part of the NSW Government’s $250 million NSW Public Spaces Legacy Program.
Hornsby Shire Mayor Philip Ruddock stated “We are very excited to launch this valuable facility in our bushland at Pyes Creek. We thank the NSW Government for its support in turning this project into a reality. We also appreciate the support from the Member for Hornsby, the Hon Matt Kean MP for advocating for this grant.”
It’s expected that this new infrastructure will provide safe and easy access for residents, and an improved experience for all. It is a significant boost for the local area.
