Logan Recreation Trails Strategy 2022-2032
Trails
The purpose of this project is to develop a Recreation Trails Strategy that supports the City of Logan to:
- be ‘recognised as an active and healthy community’ (Active Logan Strategy Vision);
- ‘continue to provide many benefits for residents and visitors. It’s a place of spiritual significance and a natural resource for drinking and irrigation, areas for leisure and recreational activities as well as a key wildlife corridor from the mountains to the bay. ‘ (Logan River Vision and Albert River Vision), and
- ‘become a vibrant visitor destination focussed on offering a mixture of sporting, cultural and leisure based experiences which will drive greater local employment, improved community amenities, and a strong market position all supported by new investment’ (Logan Destination Management Plan Vision).
It is expected that the strategy will:
- continue to maintain and improve the existing trail network;
- provide a range of trail-based experiences for residents and visitors across the City of Logan;
meet population growth demands; - be based on contemporary recreation planning and trends (including emerging trends e.g. e-bikes);
- ensure environmental and heritage values are protected;
- enable physical activity and mental health;
- fit into a regional trails network;
- support connection of routes for active transport, running, cycling and walking and include guidelines for wayfinding that is accepted in Queensland;
- meet Council’s land and trail management access requirements;
- create a risk framework for Council to work within; and
- identify additional opportunities such as unallocated state land.
