Lismore City Council is pleased with the construction progress of the Nimbin Rainbow Road Walking Track.
The Steering Group, consisting of key Nimbin community groups, stakeholders and Council staff met this month to discuss and agree on several items to improve public amenities such as the addition of picnic and birdwatching seating, fencing and lighting.
Key stakeholders also participated in a workshop to formulate the content for wayfinding signage, and a contractor has now been appointed for its production. A contractor has also been appointed to manage site vegetation, including initial plantings and ongoing maintenance. Additional works have also commenced on the placement of artworks along the track and construction of a wheelchair carpark will begin in October-November.
A number of further enhancements connecting the village to the walking track have also been identified by the Steering Group that are currently being explored.
Council wishes to thank the Nimbin Community, Community Centre, Nimbin Chamber of Commerce and private landowners for making this project possible and for their continued support throughout construction.
This project is fully funded under the NSW and Federal Government Bushfire Local Economies Fund.
The walking track is due to be completed with an official launch in late 2024.
