TRAM, SHARED-USE PATH

In reply to the Hon. M. PARNELL (3 June 2008).

The Hon. CARMEL ZOLLO (Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Road Safety, Minister for Gambling, Minister Assisting the Minister for Multicultural Affairs): On 23 July this year, I announced with my colleague the Minister for Transport, that this government would design a bicycle overpass for the northern side of the Glenelg tramway overpass project, following comprehensive community consultation.

Once the tram overpass is complete, it will enable a totally separate bicycle overpass to be built.

As a result, both pedestrians and cyclists will be able to safely cross South Road at this location.

The pathway forms part of the state government’s commitment to improving safety and convenience for cyclists—expanding opportunities to comfortably make use of sustainable transport alternatives.

The city to Glenelg tramway cycling route, or tramway park as it is otherwise known, is a work in progress and this latest addition to the project will further improve safety for cyclists who travel to the CBD from the western suburbs.

The tramway park has the long-term vision of a formal ‘green park’ along the 10 kilometre tram corridor between South Terrace and Brighton Road.
