Walking is one of the easiest ways to get around, stay active and enjoy our neighbourhood.

This Walking Network Plan (WNP) aims to make walking a safe, comfortable and appealing choice for everyone by improving the routes that connect our local destinations. That is schools, shops, parks, bus stops, community spaces and much-loved trails.

To design a walking network that reflects how our community moves, we need to hear from you by completing the online survey and interactive map below.

Tell us:

  • How often you walk and where you go.
  • What makes walking enjoyable or challenging.
  • Where footpaths, crossings, shade or signage could be improved.
  • Which routes feel safe and which ones you avoid.
  • What factors affect your experience.
  • Your thoughts on the draft walking routes shown in the plan.

There are three ways to provide feedback:

  1. Complete the survey to tell us about your walking habits, experiences and priorities.
  2. Use the interactive map social pinpoint map to drop pins and share location specific comments within the Walking Network Plan Area.
  3. Email us your thoughts and feedback at: CommunityProjects@cairns.qld.gov.au

Responses may be analysed in combination to help prioritise future walking improvements.

HAVE YOUR SAY

Your insights will directly shape future improvements and help us create a network where walking feels easier, safer and more connected.
