Traffic Alert: Shared path flood recovery remediation works

Greater Shepparton City Council will be undertaking shared path remediation works from next week, to paths which were damaged during the October 2022 flood event.

Council received external funding to undertake these works to the shared path network across the region.

The remediation works will take place from Monday 4 March until late May 2024, at the following locations:

  • Monday 4 March – mid-March 2024: Princess Park at the Boulevard and Knight Street, and Jordan’s Bend at the Balaclava Road roundabout
  • Tuesday 12 March – early-April 2024: Various sections along the shared path between Shepparton to Mooroopna, Midland Highway
  • Monday 8 April – mid-April 2024: McGuire Reserve (behind the Shepparton Heritage Centre Museum)
  • Monday 15 April – late-April 2024: Goulburn River Reserve (Victoria Lake Caravan Park, Fitzjohn Street, Shepparton)
  • Monday 22 April – early-May 2024: Jordan’s Bend River Reserve

Please note, during these remediation works some delays and detours are to be expected. Pedestrian management will be in place to facilitate the safest route while works are taking place. The shared paths will reopen at the end of each day.

The resurfacing works will improve accessibility for pedestrians and cyclists as well as enhancing access to the river and native bushland.
