The Suffolk Park to Byron Bay cycleway was a priority for Council for many years.
This project, which has been delivered in five stages, is close to completion with the only work left being:
- painting the cycle lane green at conflict zones
- line marking
- lane delineators
- installation of raised reflective markers.
These works require a dry road surface and have been delayed since December 2020 due to intermittent wet weather.
The work will be completed as soon as weather permits.
Background
Creating a cycle friendly town is a key component of the Byron Bay Town Centre Masterplan. The Byron to Suffolk cycleway will provide a safe connection from our outer suburbs and schools to the town centre.
The cycleway will be named in memory of Ben Donohoe, a much-loved local teenager who was tragically killed in an accident in 2010 near The Roadhouse Café.
Funding
This project is funded by the NSW Government and Byron Shire Council:
