The Lithgow Regional Economic Development Strategy 2018-2022 (REDS) identified that one of Lithgow’s key endowments is an abundance of natural and recreational amenities. One of the REDS key strategic directions is the prioritisation of liveability/lifestyle infrastructure and local place-making. A related priority action is the development of recreation infrastructure such as mountain bike trails.
A Draft Mountain Bike Trails Strategy for Hassans Wall Reserve has now been developed with the assistance of recognised experts in the field. The Draft Strategy details the infrastructure trails requirements, and cost to develop 3 purpose-built mountain biking trails at Hassans Walls Reserve. These would be suitable for broader scale mountain biking super flow type events. These are geared to a wide range of riders – from elite to amateur racers as well as families, couples and groups of friends riding together.
Lithgow City Council is now inviting members of the community to have their say on the draft strategy.
Submissions with the reference “Draft Mountain Bike Strategy” will be accepted up until 4.30pm Friday, 23 April 2021 via:
