The next three-kilometre section of the Sutherland to Cronulla Active Transport Link (SCATL) is now open following around 12 months of construction between Miranda and Woolooware.
Stage 2 East section will provide pedestrians and cyclists with a safe and convenient link between Jackson Avenue in Miranda and the intersection of Denman Avenue and Gannons Road on the Caringbah/Woolooware boundary.
The previous Liberal Government fully funded construction of the project between Sutherland and Cronulla and around 4.3 km of the overall project is now complete.
This latest stage connects key locations including Miranda and Caringbah shopping centres and Sutherland and Kareena Hospitals.
SCATL also links with existing active transport paths at Woolooware, giving pedestrians and cyclists access all the way from Miranda to locations such as Captain Cook Playing Fields, Bay Central at Woolooware and Woolooware and Cronulla High Schools, and also off-road connection with the Woolooware Bay path over the Captain Cook Bridge to Cooks River.
Work on the latest stage of SCATL has involved providing accessibility ramps and seating along the route, together with extensive landscaping.
Transport for NSW is working with Sutherland Shire Council to complete planting of four trees for each one removed for construction.
Design and investigation work for Stage 2 West between Kirrawee and Miranda continues and a preferred route is expected to be ready for consultation later this year. Stage 3 between Woolooware and Cronulla is in the early planning and design phase.
The completion of Stage 2 East of SCATL follows the earlier construction of Stage 1, a 1.3 km section between Sutherland and Kirrawee.

I joined former Tasmanian Premier Peter Gutwein at the Western Sydney Migrant Resource Centre Liverpool, as he set off on a seven day walk to Canberra.
His venture “The Walk, Better Together” aims to raise awareness of the contribution of migrants and refugees to Australia’s community, economy and culture, sharing positive stories with a clear message that we are all “better together” - a message as important as ever at a time of heightened community tension.

Hey Mark when do you think that it’s about time that the NSW SLSC’s are self sufficient and can trade as Licenced venues exactly the same as they are in QLD north of the border ??
29 September is National Police Remembrance Day, commemorated across Australia and the Pacific, honouring police officers who have died in the line of duty - a sad reminder of the risks police face every day to keep us safe.
On Friday I attended the service at the NSW Police Force Wall of Remembrance in the Domain, where 276 names are now inscribed on the wall.
I also attended an earlier and poignant local service at the NSW Police Memorial at Woronora Memorial Park Sutherland. ... See MoreSee Less
