Bowen’s popular Cape Edgecumbe walking trails will be upgraded to enhance the safety and visual amenity of all users.
Various segments of the trails have deteriorated over the years due to weathering and Council has appointed a local contractor to upgrade the tracks.
The trail upgrades will be carried out within the existing footprint, with selective partial re-alignments in specific areas to improve safety, track width, and erosion control.
The project will be carried out in stages with stage 1 commencing in August on the section between Murray Bay Road to Rose Bay Lions Lookout, including Mother Beddick Lookout.
Last weekend saw the 135th Bowen River Rodeo and Campdraft event and I am proud to say that Council was once again a platinum sponsor.
This hallmark event is more than just a display of outback skill and horsemanship; it represents the very heart and soul of our rural community.
It attracts visitors and brings together residents, fostering a sense of unity, camaraderie, and pride in our shared heritage and traditions.
I would like to extend my appreciation and thanks to the organisers, volunteers, and sponsors who work tirelessly behind the scenes to bring this event to life.
Their commitment, dedication, and countless hours of hard work are the driving force behind the success of the Bowen River Rodeo and Campdraft.
Their passion for preserving our traditions and creating an unforgettable experience for all who attend is amazing.
The Bowen River Rodeo and Campdraft event also plays a significant role in boosting our local economy.
Visitors from near and far flock to our region, injecting vitality into our businesses and providing an opportunity to showcase the natural beauty and hospitality that the Whitsunday region is renowned for.
Just a reminder that the Collinsville Community Catch-up will be held at the Collinsville Community Centre on Wednesday, June 21 from 9am to 11am.
This is the fourth community catch-up and is an initiative of Council to better connect with our local communities, facilitate a two-way flow of information, provide an update on Council projects relevant to you, and hearing residents’ thoughts about these projects and other issues affecting the local community.
