Better streets and spaces

3 new bike links for a more connected network

We’re building new cycleways to make our network safer and better connected.

Guided Bike Ride 4 March 2023 (52)

O’Dea Avenue, Waterloo

We’re planning a two-way separated cycleway the northern side of O’Dea Avenue between Bourke Street and Gadigal Avenue.

This new cycleway will form an important east-west connection between the existing popular routes on Bourke Street and Gadigal Avenue.

There will be some impacts to parking, and one bus stop will be relocated as part of the works. View the plans and leave your feedback.

Separated cycleways, like this one in Portman Avenue, Zetland, reduce footpath riding and make riding safer.

Ultimo to Surry Hills

We’re looking to build a connection between Ultimo and Surry Hills, via Haymarket.

This is an area of high bike and pedestrian activity, and the new bike links will reduce footpath riding and make walking and riding safer for everybody.

The proposal includes separated cycleway on Ultimo Road, plus a low-speed quiet-way on Thomas Street in Haymarket. Two new sections of separated cycleway on Campbell Street (west) will link to the existing popular bike route between Surry Hills and Haymarket.

The project also includes new tree plantings and other streetscape improvements.

Wellington Street, Waterloo

A new separated cycleway link is planned for Wellington Street, Waterloo. The new bike lane will link to the popular George Street cycleway in the east.

With the future opening of the Waterloo Metro station, this new bike link is an important step to make the area safer for people walking and riding.

Stop sign priority will also be changed at the intersection of George and Wellington streets.
