Following community feedback on initial designs in 2024, Maitland City Council has conducted an in-depth route option assessment and revised the proposed route for the Morpeth to Walka shared pathway.

Designed to improve connectivity and encourage more active transport, the near 15km pathway loop will link key destinations across the city including Rutherford, Walka Water Works, Central Maitland, East Maitland and Morpeth. 

Early stages of this project have been completed in previous years, including the Illalung Park to Robert Street path, Steamer Street pathway and Morpeth Road loop at Morpeth as well as an extension of The Levee shared path from Hunter to Bella Street, Horseshoe Bend.
