Council is excited to advise that construction is now underway on a major shared pathway project along Panorama Road, Blackstone Heights. This long-planned upgrade will deliver lasting benefits for the local community by improving safety, accessibility, and active transport connections.
What works will be undertaken?
The project includes:
- Construction of a new shared pedestrian and cycling pathway on the eastern side of Panorama Road
- Driveway entrance upgrades to improve access and safety
- Stormwater infrastructure upgrades
Construction schedule
Construction is underway. The project will be delivered in two stages, with overall completion anticipated in mid-June 2026.
- Stage 1: Bayview Drive to Canopus Drive, expected to be completed in late April
- Stage 2: Remaining sections of Panorama Road, expected to be completed in mid-June
Traffic and access impacts
This is a substantial construction project on a busy main road. Traffic management will be in place for the duration of the works. Residents and road users are asked to follow all signage, expect some delays, and allow extra travel time where possible.
A significant upgrade for Blackstone Heights
This project will significantly improve walking and cycling amenity, strengthen connections to existing footpaths, and enhance safety and accessibility for all users.
This project is co-funded by Council and the Australian Government through the Infrastructure Investment Program – Active Transport Fund.
