Port Stephens Council will deliver a new shared use pathway connecting Halifax to Harwood Avenue in Nelson Bay, funded by the NSW Government under the Get NSW Active Program.

The project aims to enhance local infrastructure, promoting an accessible friendly, safe, convenient and spacious route for a variety of activities including walking and cycling.

Council has completed detail design and approval activities for this project through an earlier Get NSW Active grant, and the project will now move to construction.

This project is one phase in the broader initiative to formally connect infrastructure and some of Port Stephens most beloved locations from Nelson Bay to Tomaree Headland.
