In brief:
- The ACT Government will build a 650-metre loop path in Palmerville Heritage Park.
- Palmerville Heritage Park is in north Belconnen.
- This will help people better explore the area.
The ACT Government will build a new loop path through Palmerville Heritage Park.
It will be approximately 650 metres long.
The park is a popular open space in north Belconnen.
It sits in an historic cultural landscape near McKellar, Evatt and Giralang.
This location represents a connection to the early rural settlement of the ACT. There is evidence of past land use in this area as a rural settlement from the early 1800s to the 1950s.
Canberrans have requested the continuation of the park's existing walking trail to create a loop.
This will help people better explore the area.
Ginninderra Creek runs along the park’s east side. As the area is flood prone, this will influence the final alignment of the path and the materials used to build it.
Once heritage and environment approvals are complete, the final alignment will be released ahead of construction procurement.
Construction procurement is expected to begin in early 2025.
