Sunshine Coast recreation trail plan 2012
Council adopted the Sunshine Coast recreation trail plan at its Ordinary Meeting on 31 January 2012.
The Sunshine Coast Recreation Trail Plan 2012 provides a vision for recreation trails on the Sunshine Coast, includes a network blueprint prioritising upgrades to existing trails, and proposes new trails and areas for further investigation. Council adopted the plan to guide the future development of a recreational trail network across the Sunshine Coast.
Overview
The Sunshine Coast Recreation Trail Plan 2012 is council's principal document to:
- guide decision-making with respect to trail development for the next 10 years
- evaluate the existing trail network
- inform council's planning including the planning scheme, strategic documents, funding allocations and operational activity.
The plan focuses on the council-managed recreation trails, but proposes partnerships with other network managers such as national parks.
The plan considers recreation trails in natural and urban areas.
