As a high priority in our Joint Bike Plan (PDF, 33.8 MB) (developed with the Town of Victoria Park in 2018), the City is working with the Department of Transport (DoT) to create the Canning Bridge to Curtin Bike Link to:

  • Create safe active streets (SAS) along Godwin Avenue, Pether Road and Davilak Crescent, to give priority to people riding bikes and walking
  • Construct a shared path for walking and riding parallel to Manning Road from Pether Road to Gillon Street, where it will join the existing on-road bike lane on Walanna Drive which goes to Jackson Road via Waterford Plaza, where there is also a link to Curtin University.

The addition of these safe active streets and shared path connections will complete the Canning Bridge to Curtin University Bike Link. They complement existing infrastructure providing links to Canning Bridge Station, local schools, the George Burnett Leisure Centre, Farmers Market on Manning, Waterford Plaza and Curtin University.

Project update

Following community and stakeholder feedback on the designs in March 2022 and a peer review by an expert panel, minor changes were made and the designs finalised.

The DoT has just announced that the City will receive grant funding of $475,000 towards construction of the Bike Link in 2023-2024. Find out more about the funding announcement for the construction of the Bike Link.
