Eurobodalla Pathways Strategy 2026

Building safe, accessible, and connected pathways across Eurobodalla

Council is updating the Eurobodalla Pathways Strategy. The 2026 strategy will plan new and improved footpaths and shared pathways across Eurobodalla. It will look at how our population is changing and how people travel today - including e-bikes, scooters, and mobility aids.

Project background

Council adopted the current strategy in 2017. Since then, Eurobodalla has changed - our population is growing and ageing, new neighbourhoods are developing, and people are getting around in new ways. The updated 2026 strategy will respond to these changes and set a clear direction for pathway planning over the next several years.

Community engagement

We asked the community to share their views on Eurobodalla's footpaths and pathways to help us:

  • understand how the community uses existing pathways
  • find gaps and missing links in the network
  • plan future pathways that are safe, connected, and accessible for people of all ages and abilities.

The community shared their views in three ways:

1. Survey: The community shared their experiences, needs, and priorities for walking and riding on Eurobodalla's shared pathways

2. Places map: We asked the community to drop a pin on our places map to show where:

  • a new pathway was needed
  • an existing pathway could be improved
  • there are safety concerns or missing links.

3. Pop-up sessions: During April 2026, we held three pop-up sessions with the community at Batemans Bay, Moruya, and Narooma. Residents shared their thoughts about Eurobodalla's pathways with Council's strategic team.

Next steps

We reviewed all feedback from the survey, pop-up sessions, places map, and discussions with community groups and Council staff. The feedback will help:

  • build on previous research and submissions we received for the 2017 Pathways Strategy
  • identify key priorities, gaps, and opportunities in the pathway network. This includes improvements to safety, accessibility, and connectivity
  • guide us to prepare the draft Eurobodalla Pathways Strategy 2026.

When we complete the draft strategy, we will share it with the community for further feedback to help shape the final strategy.
