STAGE ONE END IN SIGHT

Sep 23, 2024 | Latest News

Federal Member for Gippsland Darren Chester says locals and visitors are likely to be enjoying the first stage of Krauatungalung Walk near the surf club at Lakes Entrance before the end of October.

Local firm Design Co Builders has installed a significant section of elevated boardwalk, along with seating and break-out areas, and is now working on the storage shed for the aquatic facilities.

“It’s coming together well and will be a hit with people of all ages who want to enjoy an all-abilities accessible walk along the foreshore,” Mr Chester said.

“I’m urging East Gippsland Shire Council to get a move on and finish the design and costings for the remaining sections so we can seek funding from the Growing Regions Program, which is currently open for applications.

“In total, I was able to secure $5.8 million from the previous government for the boardwalks, concrete path replacement and artwork, but due to the long delays, we’re going to need more funding to actually finish the circuit next year.”
