Community Engagement
Coorong District Council invited feedback on the draft 2022-2027 Footpath Network Expansion Strategy at the beginning of 2022. The Strategy sets the criteria and structure to guide the expansion of Council's current footpath network in a systematic and financially sustainable approach.
The final Strategy was adopted in February 2022, and includes a five-year delivery program which outlines the annual capital investment required to construct new footpaths.
