Brighton Shared Path, Melbourne
Tract consultants were engaged by Bayside City Council to generate a considered landscape design solution for the missing pedestrian/bicycle link between Bay Street and the Middle Brighton Baths, Brighton.
Working with Council and the project marine consultant GHD, Tract generated a dynamic solution of a curvilinear elevated boardwalk that enables visitors to connect with the coastal setting, travelling over sand and water. The integration of a series of rock groynes maximises the foreshore by encouraging beach renourishment offering opportunities for picnicking and beach activities.

The scope of works also included revegetation and fencing works to the sand spit and beautification works along the adjacent pathway and eastern path access points.
The 1km missing link provides an offroad shared path that links in with the existing Bay Trail between Altona and Beaumaris and beyond. |
