We came together
initially in response to The
Centennial Parklands Transport, Access & Parking Plan which was
put on public exhibition on 1 July 2001. The Centennial Park Trust engaged
consultants Sinclair Knight Merz to produce the The Centennial Parklands
Transport, Access & Parking Plan. It was the opinion of Cycle Centennial
that if the recommendations of the plan were implemented they would have had
a devastating effect on training cyclists and would have exposed all users
of the park to serious risk of injury and/or death. As a result
delegates, resolved to work with the
Centennial Park Trust and met with Centennial Parklands Administration
and representatives from Sinclair Knight Merz, on 19 September 2001, in what
was the first of several such meetings.
