Anniversary Trail bridge over Toorak rd

[Claude Cat]

$4m project proposed and adopted by Boroondara Council. Needs funding though.
This spot has needed a bridge forever, the trail from Fordham Ave to the Glen Iris side is plainly a load of rubbish.

I don't mind the tone of the BN article towards the end

I think I rode that once ages ago and decided to never do it again.... bridge would be good

I run that path every now and then and can confirm the crossing is sub standard in its current form!

Now we just need the same treatment for the numerous GCT road crossings: there are too many, and they're all risky to cross.

When heading south on the anniversary trail the safest option is to use the traffic lights to cross Toorak Rd into Summerhill Rd and then go along the alley (Central Ct) behind the shops to re-join the trail. See HERE

Who doesn't love diving into the CX-style sand trap under Toorak Road??

About time they fixed that too!

That won't be happening soon if ever. What are the realistic options, Have the path set higher with less head room? That would still be prone to flooding...

Best quick fix for GCT on the stretch from the Anniversary Trail inbound would be light sensors for Dunlop St like there is for Winton Rd.

It won't get fixed until they figure out what they are doing with the railway crossing. Surely that's on the list to get eliminated sooner rather than later.

Wasn't thinking about the cars and train line above. To be honest I avoid that intersection when driving for just that reason! Surprising that they haven't removed that train crossing yet...
