Ballina mayoral candidate, Sharon Cadwallader says she’s keen to proceed with plans to boost local tourism and connect smaller towns to the major centres in the region.
A motion which was passed by council last week, will look at building a bikeway, connecting Lennox Head to Byron Bay.
“It’s a bit of a no brainer in my view. The region’s attracted $35 million dollars in Govenment money, and it’s time Ballina tapped into that” – Sharon Cadwallader, Ballina Shire Council.
The strategy also calls for the extension of the new Northern Rivers Rail Trail to reach the Ballina Byron Gateway Airport.
