A re-elected Labor Government would put $1.8M towards an upgrade of the Barrenjoey and Umina pathway on the Ettalong foreshore.
The election commitment would also go towards beach and sand rejuvenation to address erosion as well as community seating.
This project would support the extension of the pathway to Ocean Beach Surf Club, connecting Ettalong and Umina via shared pathways and improving access to the foreshore for parents with prams and those with mobility restraints.
The announcement is a result of more than a year of advocacy from Labor Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid, with more than 850 people signing a petition calling for upgrades on the foreshore.
“The Ettalong foreshore is a beautiful part of the world, and I’m so pleased that this election commitment will make it easier for people to access,” Reid said.
“This is a fantastic result for our community which has heavily advocated for this project.
“I’d like to thank the more than 850 locals who have signed the petition, as well as the Ettalong Diggers for their advocacy along the way.”
Consistent with past practice, election commitments will be delivered in line with Commonwealth Grants Rules and Principles.
