PortBUG: Potential recommendations for the 2020-2021 budget: 0ct 19 th , 2020 1. Ongoing completion & improvement of the Outer Harbor Greenway: Completing the Outer Harbor Greenway route through the Port CBD and Waterfront and its promotion to both Councillors and the community should be considered a priority by PA/E Council for 2021. Additional & ongoing initiatives should include: • Increased rider safety on Lipson Street: A separated bike-lane or alternative off-road path safety provision on Lipson Street-South is essential and something the Council must consider, especially given its inability to effectively manage vehicle speeds and excessive commercial and heavy vehicle traffic on this section of the Greenway. • A more direct, effectively designed, secure and properly signed linkage through the Port Waterfront: This link would proceed from the Nelson St pedestrian crossings along Nile Street (and its wide northern- side footpath area adjacent to the Town Hall, across Lighthouse Square via a ramped and painted entry/exit and then down Divett St to join the OHG. This seems a far more appropriate route to Lipson/Timson Streets than the current awkward, unsafe and very inefficient route along the waterfront! See ‘CBD02’ below. • New ramps at the Birkenhead Bridge/Jenkins Street transition: Currently users have to negotiate awkwardly angled, poorly defined and unsafe ‘legacy’ ramps. New ramps specifically designed for entry/exit to and from the Bridge Pathway are required at the end of Jenkins St. Appropriate lighting for this ramp area should also be considered. See ‘Port Loop’ below. • Replace and improve substandard shared-use pathways on the Outer Harbor Greenway: The current convoluted pathways lie between the end of Railway Terrace and a narrow ramp onto Osborne Road, Osborne (ie; behind the Osborne Railway Station). Requires new and more direct pathways, wider and more suitable ramps, new signage and possibly new lighting. • Shade tree plantings on the OHG: Serious consideration should be given to opportunities for effective shade tree plantings along the OHG, particularly through the Gilman Rail Reserve (ie; adjacent to the Aviation Museum and south to the Edith Street junction). • Establish a ‘Bikeway Art/Interpretive Installation Project: There are many opportunities for use of art and sculpture installations on the Outer Harbor Greenway to enhance the route’s profile, provide interpretive site information and visual interest 2. A paved pathway link across the Gilman Rail Reserve: Currently an off-road shared-use path extends from the PREXY Bikeway along Perkins Drive to Bedford Street and then stops! While of reasonable quality, this pathway does not provide any appropriate connection to other (existing or planned) bike routes. It needs to be extended across Bedford Street and south across the Gilman Rail Reserve to join to the Gilman East-West Connector. This would then provide a direct connection to both the Outer-Harbor Greenway and to the proposed Rosewater Loop. Bicycle users on (for instance) the PREXY Bikeway would no longer have to ride across the Port River and through the Port CBD to access the Greenway or other routes to the south or into the City. See below - starts at point ‘77’ & ‘1’ ar right. 3. Preliminary project work for the Rosewater Loop: This could include soil testing, investigation of contamination management, ownership transfer, planning and costing etc. See ‘2’ at right.
