UNCOVERED: Richmond vale rail trail plan rolls on as second part exhibited | History Defined

TRACK: A map showing the proposed 32 kilometre Richmond Vale Rail Trail pathway from Kurri Kurri to Shortland, which traverses Cessnock, Lake Macquarie and Newcastle local government areas.

The second part of the two-section Richmond Vale Rail Trail shared pathway proposal is now on public exhibition.

The rail trail is a 32 kilometre off road track on the former Richmond Vale railway between Kurri Kurri and Hexham/Shortland, more than double the length of the Fernleigh Track. It is aimed at providing safe alternative route to the local road network, including the Pacific Highway, New England Highway and M1 Motorway.
