How can there be no pedestrian access to both sides of the bridge? This area lacks basic infrastructure something severe. how can there be no foot path on one side of bayview and no access to Wolli Creek train stn? NSW Gov and Councils need to lift their game!

I also think that pedestrian/cycling access to Wolli Creek station from Mackey Park needs to be significantly improved, and could be addressed by a footbridge paralleling the railway bridge (See for a great example the footbridge over Georges River which connects East Hills with Voyager Point).

As a jogger and someone with young kids who lives in Marrickville, I love the park around the river but have problems crossing the busy road on both sides of the bridge near Tempe Station.

The current use of crossing at Tempe Station and then back across to continue circuit walk is hazardous to the older walker as there is only a small pedestrian refuge and in peak hour you can spend many minutes exposed to traffic both ways.

I strongly support this proposal -- it's a matter of safety, as many cyclists and pedestrians don't use the pedestrian traffic lights near the train station, but just cut across the road near the bridge, in order to cross the river.

I believe that a pedestrian walkway on the north western side of Unwins Bridge at Tempe is a necessity for safety of young children and adults. I walk regularly and have observed so many children almost hit at the Tempe train station lights with cars not stopping/ speeding and crossing the road at Tempe to the Gough Whitman Park path on the other side of the bridge. I believe that this crossing is of great importance for the safety and would benefit all people in the marrickville community

It is always best for the environment including the people who use as well as the fauna and flora, to take the lower impact solution.

If Marrickville Council are actively encouraging its' citizens to make use of local parks and reserves, it is only fitting to create a safe pedestrian bridge [or at least pedestrian crossing] to make the two sections accessible. So many times I've turned back form a wonderful walk along Cooks River, because continuing onto the Tempe side is near impossible. Thank you.

I do this "loop" daily on bike with dog on leash and feel this proposal is a sensible and safe solution. I have a 6yr old boy and the current situation is a real impediment to safe family biking, especially dodging the traffic on Bayview St.

As a local who uses this crossing of the cook's river, I fully support this petition and request that the NSW Government, Marrickville Council and Canterbury Council commit to the construction of a pedestrian walkway on the north-western side of Unwin's Bridge at Tempe to a provde better, safer access across the Cooks River.

People walking and cycling for recreation should not have to encounter heavy traffic en route. If a simple addition to the side of the bridge or else a pedestrian only bridge could be erected, the whole experience would be enhanced and more people would take advantage of this aesthetically more pleasing and safer alternative.
