The project’s outcomes align with the following outcomes from the American River Strategic Plan, developed by the American River Progress Association in 2021:
- ● IA1 Footpaths - provide safe travel for residents and visitors
- ● IA2 Parking – provide parking infrastructure to avoid congestion in key areas of town
- ● IA3 - Walkways / Bike Tracks - provides alternative routes and transport means for viewing the surrounds of American River
The project also aligns with several of the Guiding Principles identified in the American River Structure (Place) Plan, but in particular Principle B: Connected Community.
- ● B1. A walkable community. Support a walkable community which is compact in form and well connected.
- ● B3. Create a network of accessible paths.
- ● B5. Ensure new residential areas and tourist and service centres are well-linked to each other, the coast, Marine Precinct, Town Centre and recreation areas.
- ● B7. American River remains a place which is characterised by its natural setting and environment through habitat enhancement and accessible trail networks.
