Background
The NCWSIP presents the vision, objectives, strategies and
actions for increasing bike riding and walking in Noosa over
the next 20 years (to 2040). It updates the Noosa Cycling
and Walking Strategy 2004-2016.
The strategy will guide Noosa Council’s (Council) planning,
development and promotion of its bike riding and walking
networks in the future. The plan covers both the active
transport network for those commuting by bike or foot and
connections to the bushland trail network for those wanting
to enjoy the great outdoors.
"It's about getting people
T

out of cars, onto bikes,
onto footpaths and getting
to where we need to go in
R
a safe and enjoyable way."
Councillor Brian Stockwell

Strategy alignment
Community feedback and adoption of Council’s strategy
documents, demonstrate a strong agenda for sustainable
transport outcomes, to reduce dependency on private
motor vehicles, and increase bike riding, walking and public
transport use. Increased community participation in bike
riding and walking activities support the objectives of the
following Council strategies.

Community engagement
Council has undertaken considerable community Key survey findings
engagement on bike riding and walking through the
Noosa Transport Strategy and the Noosa Sport and Active
Recreation Plan. Key stakeholders were also involved
in Tourism Noosa’s development of the Noosa Trail
Masterplan. The community feedback received through
these processes were a starting point for the NCWSIP.
Additional engagement with the community was important

Understanding our community
Who is the strategy for?
The NCWSIP aims to provide bike riding and walking networks that meet the needs of all ages and abilities. There are a variety
of network users in Noosa with specific needs, as identified in Table 2.
• Age and skill levels vary - school children, people with a disability, seniors, parents with prams.
• At higher risk of injury.
• Travel to a variety of destinations such as schools, shopping centres and community facilities.

Delivering the strategy
Actions
Delivering better connected and higher quality bike riding and walking networks can result in significant and broad-ranging
benefits for the community.
The following actions have been identified to support the vision and objectives (outlined on page 7):
Deliver and maintain a safe and connected network
Addressing Objectives 1, 2, 3, 7 and 8
The provision of a safe and connected bike riding and walking network is the top priority for Council to
Action 1 increase bike riding and walking participation in Noosa. This includes completing missing links in the
network with a focus on recreation, education and commuter trips, and providing connections to the Noosa
trail network, mountain biking tracks, and competitive cycling opportunities.
Action 2
Provide supporting facilities
T
Addressing Objectives 1, 3, 4 and 7
AF
Our walking and bike riding networks need to be attractive and comfortable to encourage more users.
Providing supporting facilities such as way-finding signage, shade, shelter, bicycle parking, drinking
fountains and seating allow for an enjoyable and convenient trip.
Encourage increased participation
Addressing Objectives 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8
Action 3 The delivery of travel behaviour change and education programs can be a cost-effective and proven
R
method of inducing more people to walk and ride bikes. Targeted programs can encourage people to
walk and ride more often for more trip purposes, particularly when improved infrastructure is provided.
D
Plan for walk and cycle friendly communities
Addressing Objectives 1, 2, 3 and 8
Action 4 Active transport planning needs to be integrated into all levels of planning and delivery within Council and
in planning new developments to achieve the NCWSIP vision and objectives.
Embrace emerging technologies
Addressing Objectives 3 and 4
Action 5 There are emerging technologies and devices such as electric micro-mobility devices (e-bikes, e-scooter,
e-skateboards etc.) that are making a difference to how people use active transport. These environmentally
friendly technologies can make them attractive to more diverse community groups.

Section 39
5-year implementation plan
Table 14 lists the projects in the 5-year implementation
plan. A total of 29 projects including 19 low cost/missing link
projects have been identified. The estimated cost of these
projects totals $14.6 million and includes grant funding.
The Garth Prowd Bridge and Noosa Parade projects will
provide a high-standard bike riding and walking connection
between Noosaville and Noosa Heads, two of Noosa’s
largest and busiest centres. These connections are
expected to be a key catalyst for the growth of bike riding
and walking.
10-year implementation plan
Table 15 lists the projects in the 10-year implementation
plan. A total of 12 projects including 6 low cost/missing
link projects have been identified. The estimated cost to
Council for these projects totals $8.1 million, with $750k for
additional low cost missing link projects.

The Noosa Drive projects will connect to the upgraded
facilities proposed along Noosa Parade as part of the
5-year implementation plan. Combined with the Sunshine
Beach Road project, connectivity between Noosaville,
Noosa Heads and Noosa Junction will be significantly

improved, particularly for cyclists. Currently, high vehicular
traffic and pedestrian volumes combined with limited bike
riding facilities in sections is likely to discourage many

Monitoring and evaluation
Monitoring
Continued monitoring and review of bike riding and walking outcomes in Noosa is important to understand the success of the
NCWSIP and if any modifications are required.
Accurate data is required to establish a baseline for network usage and the success of initiatives. Table 15 identifies the tasks
required to effectively monitor participation levels. Once baseline data is established, targets should be developed to measure
the success of the NCWSIP.

4. Review and track active transport performance indicators.
Analyse data collected to inform:
D
• Why people travel the way they do and potential ways to
increase active transport mode share (eg targeted marketing
and programs aimed at overcoming concerns with bike riding or
•
walking).
Understanding of usage patterns (eg high use routes, roads
or road sections being avoided and how upgrades affect
✓ ✓
participation levels) to inform construction of new/upgraded
infrastructure.
• Refinement of the prioritisation of works identified in the
NCWSIP.

Key performance indicators
Table 16 identifies the key performance indicators that will be used to assess the performance of the NCWSIP and how
frequently the reviews will be completed.
It is proposed that a review of the strategy and its implementation be undertaken within five years and a major update completed
by 2031.

Glossary and reference material
Glossary
Active transport (AT) The mix of walking and cycling, integrated with public transport, used as a mode of travel for
commuting, recreation or utility purposes, instead of private motorised vehicles and taxis. Active
transport promotes individual and community health and wellbeing. Can also include skating and
scootering.
Bicycle/bike A vehicle with two or more wheels that is built to be propelled by human power through a belt,
chain or gears.
Bicycle awareness zone A bicycle facility which is on the road carriageway and defined using a yellow bicycle symbol to
(BAZ) indicate bicycle riders may be in the area but does not provide exclusive space for bicycle riders.
Bicycle lane An exclusive space for cyclists on the road carriageway, defined by white lines on either side, a
white painted bicycle symbol and regulatory signage.

Cycle street Cycle streets (also called Safe Active Streets or Bicycle Boulevards in other jurisdictions) are local
access roads that form part of the principal cycle network. Cycle streets can also be considered
AF
as bicycle paths with limited vehicle access. Cycle Streets are designed as a mixed traffic
environment and encourage bicycle riders to use the centre of the road. When approaching or
opposing motor vehicles, drivers must use the rough textured edges of the carriageway.
Cyclist/bicycle/bike rider A person who is riding a bicycle.
Cycleway A bicycle facility such as a shared path, bicycle only path or separated cycle track.
R
End-of-trip facilities Facilities located at the end of a journey that can encourage people to cycle or walk such as
showers, lockers and toilets, as well as short or longer-term secure bicycle parking.
E-wheeling or e-mobility Emerging active transport device where the "e" stands for electric. The most popular forms are
D
electric bikes (e-bikes) and electric scooters (e-scooters) but can also include e-skateboards,
electric pedal assisted bikes (pedelecs) and seated e-scooters.
Footpath A path which is off-road, generally in the road verge, which is provided for pedestrians. Note that
in Queensland, bicycle riders are permitted to use the footpath.
HPR Highest Priority Route.
LGA Local Government Area.
Micro-mobility Another term used to describe e-wheeling or e-mobility. Typically small, lightweight electric
powered vehicles operating at speeds typically below 25km/h.
Mid-trip facilities Facilities that support users whilst undertaking their journey such as drinking fountains, rest spots,
seating, shade, shelter and lighting.
NCWSIP Noosa Cycling and Walking Strategy and Implementation Plan.
Off-road bicycle facility A bicycle facility is said to be off-road when it is located in the verge (ie road related area parallel
to the road carriageway); through parks or reserves; or within a public transport corridor or other
public or private land not open to motor vehicle traffic.
On-road bicycle facility A bicycle facility is said to be on-road when it forms part of the road carriageway such as a bicycle
lane or a shoulder shared with parked vehicles.
Pedestrian Any person walking including a person: driving a motorised wheelchair, a non-motorised
wheelchair, a wheeled recreational device or wheeled toy.

Raised priority crossing Where pathway users are given priority across a road using regulatory GIVE WAY or STOP signs
and line marking, it is referred to as a priority crossing. Where these facilities are constructed on a
raised platform to increase visibility and reduce vehicle speeds, it is referred to as a raised priority
crossing.
Separated cycle track A bicycle facility for cyclists only which is physically separated from motor vehicles either in the
road verge (off-road) or on the road carriageway (on-road).
Separated path A path which is off-road and has separated space for pedestrians and cyclists, usually defined
through line-marking and signage.
Shared path A path which is off-road and is shared space with pedestrians and cyclists. The minimum width for
a shared path is 2.5m.
