The City of Greater Geelong’s planning team thanks community members who responded to the initial Barwon Heads Pump Track plans. Initial community feedback indicated that Council was on track with various aspects of the original design, although insights also indicated that there is still some modification required. We’re so grateful for the level of interest in the project and we can assure you that we have heard your concerns and will now review the design.

The feedback provided suggested that the design needs to be more closely aligned with the intentions of the recently endorsed masterplan for the Barwon Heads Village Park. This includes the use of natural materials for the Pump Track rather than asphalt.

Council is working on the engagement report and this will be available over the coming weeks.

Council’s planning team is committed to engaging the community as it investigates redesign options, while also continuing to explore funding possibilities for the provision of the track.
