Moreland-Bell Upfield Trail
12 September 2019
Have your say on Upfield open space

Because of the choice of elevated rail to remove the level crossings in the Bell-Moreland precinct, space has been created to improve the Upfield path and to provide new public open space along the west side of the viaduct.

Preliminary designs have been done and there is now an opportunity for the public to provide feedback.

There are community drop-in sessions on Saturday 14 September, 10:00am-12:30pm at the Colonel Room - Batman Royale, 14 Gaffney Street, Coburg North.

Drop in any time, no RSVP required.

Alternatively you can comment via online engagement hub at your.levelcrossings.vic.gov.au.

The Bell to Moreland community info hub, where you can talk with the project team and learn more about the project, is opening soon.

It will be located at 153 Sydney Road, Coburg and initial open days are Tuesday 17 September, 4:30pm-7:30pm and Thursday 19 September, 3:00pm-5:00pm, with further openings to come.

In a changing climate the shoreline is no sure thing

Many of our best bike journeys are along coastlines, or up and down the creeks and rivers that meet the sea. These are generally traffic-free routes, scenic, calm and refreshing. But with rising sea levels some of this vital infrastructure is at threat of inundation, erosion and from changes in groundwater chemistry.
