I commend the proposed cycleways included in the strategy. I would like to see a link to the existing cycleway along Mittagong Rivulette included. This link would join McDonald Street (off Bowral Street) to the cycleway. A bridge or graded path though the creek would be needed. It is currently a well used dirt path that is very difficult to negotiate when wet as it becomes muddy and slippery (or with a pram at any time). I look forward to seeing this link included in the strategy.

I am glad to have this opportunity to comment on the Bike Strategy. I would like the Phillip Street, Burradoo access path to the Bong Bong track completed. It is marked on the Bowral Recreational Paths brochure produced by Wingecarribee Shire Council, but it does not exist. Residents living in Elizabeth Street (west), St James Close and Phillip Street are only able to access the Bong Bong Track via Moss Vale Road, which is dangerous with small children on bikes and prams, as there are no footpaths or room for paths of any kind. This would also provide access to Eridge Park for those riding or walking along the track from Bowral or Moss Vale.
