What is the project?
The department's Round 2 funded projects list describes it this way:
The project will improve the appearance, accessibility, amenity, safety and wayfaring for residents and visitors to Mapoon through constructing Mapoon’s first concrete shared cycle and foot path around the town centre and extending a link to two new suburbs, with shade trees along the path, solar lighting, a constructed plaza with covered seating area, a pocket park for Mapoon’s new subdivisions, two new Mapoon entry statements, and bilingual directional and interpretive signage.
Applicant, location, state and funding are also from that list (page 9).
