Parramatta River’s foreshore is set to become even more pedestrian and cyclist friendly with the community invited to have their say on the proposed $9 million Eastern Parramatta River project.
The project is set to deliver 2.8 kilometres of upgraded pathways along the Parramatta River across five locations in Parramatta, Rydalmere and Ermington.
City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Martin Zaiter said community feedback is at the heart of this project.
“Parramatta River is one of our City’s best natural assets. This project aims to make it more accessible for people to jump on a bike or go for a walk or a run along its foreshores,” Cr Zaiter said.
“The shared or separated paths will make it easier and safer for everyone to enjoy these scenic areas.
“Your voice matters. Many of the components in this project were requested by our community, and we want to hear how we can ensure these proposed improvements best serve your needs.”
Works planned as part of the Eastern Parramatta River project include:
The project is funded by the NSW Government through the Western Sydney Infrastructure Grants Program (WSIG) with the City of Parramatta. The Eastern Parramatta River project will begin construction in the second half of 2025, with completion expected by mid-2027.
Residents can share their feedback on concept designs via Participate Parramatta until 5pm on Thursday 21 November.
