As part of the 2018/2019 Capital Works Program, there is provision for the construction of a footpath on Leon Road, between Robert Street and Alexander Road. The construction of the footpath would also provide pedestrians with a safe alternative route to Genesta Park and the shops along Waratah Avenue, as well as completing the footpath network along Leon Road.
Consultation on a boundary aligned footpath was undertaken between 22 October 2018 and 9 November 2018. The City received 10 responses from the 27 properties, with one resident in favour, eight residents against and one that provided no preference.
As a result, the Council received a recommendation that this proposal be withdrawn and funds allocated in the Capital Works Program be redirected to other existing or future projects.

The City is proposing to construct a 1.5m wide
footpath along Leon Road between Roberts Street and Alexander Road. Resident
feedback and comments on the proposal is now sought.
The construction of this section of footpath
completes the footpath network for Leon Road which will safety allow
pedestrians to access Genesta Park and the shops along Waratah Avenue.
Investigations on the location of the footpath
has resulted in the design continuing the alignment from the existing footpath
in Leon Road which aligns with the property boundaries and considers the
development of resident’s verges and the street trees. An alternative design
would have been on kerbside however this has been eliminated due to the cost
and the requirement to relocate the street lights.
Please view the proposed design (including location) in the document library and complete the online submission.
