Secret 2nd "GreenWay" to Brighton-Le-Sands!

6/6/2026

0 Comments

 
On Saturday 6 June 2026 we're heading south via a wonderful corridor quietly announced in the shadows of the GreenWay opening! 
The M6 Active Transport Corridor stretches 4 kilometres from Kyeemagh to Monterey, wide, separated, and genuinely lovely. It's the kind of infrastructure that makes you wonder why we don't build everything like this.
​

We'll also be passing through some of the Inner West's cycling infrastructure along the way: the quick-build route on Meeks Road, the Carrington Road cycleway, and the Botany Bay foreshore path.

🗺️ Check out the route: ridewithgps.com/routes/54645516.
​🚲 Be sure to bring a functioning bike and your water.
🕗 8.30AM - 1.00PM
📍 We'll gather near the bike parking areas on the Metro side of Sydenham Station.
