Sydney Harbour Bridge Cycleway Access Program
Project overview
Transport for NSW is progressing plans for a bike ramp at the northern end of the Sydney Harbour Bridge Cycleway.
Project information
Project status
Planning is underway to upgrade access at the northern end of the Sydney Harbour Bridge Cycleway by providing a bike ramp and upgraded cycle path along Alfred Street South, Milsons Point.
As part of the detailed design process, site investigations are required on Lavender, Burton and Alfred Streets. These investigations commenced in November and will continue in late February.
Thank you for your feedback
From 28 November to 19 December 2022, feedback was sought on the Review of Environmental Factors (REF) for the project. The public display period has now closed.
All submissions received during the public display period will be considered and addressed in a Consultation Report.
We thank the community for their feedback and engagement with the project to date.
Next steps
Decisions on final project scope and design elements are subject to engagement with project stakeholders, outcomes of the Have Your Say community engagement process, future design development, and planning and heritage approvals.
