Construction on the Northern Rivers Rail Trail from Lismore to Bentley is steadily progressing.
So far, 10km of the track is completed and two-thirds of the gravel trail has been laid. Lismore council says, "we're well on our way to connecting to Bentley".
At Lismore Railway Station, the transformation of the old rail tracks has commenced, and construction progress continues where deviations are required to improve user safety and accessibility.
The project is on track to unveil the 16.3km Lismore to Bentley section later in 2024.
Once complete, the section will connect to the recently opened Casino to Bentley section, offering nearly 30km of trail in one stretch.
The Richmond Valley section opened in March and has been a hit, drawing daily visitors to Casino and the Richmond Valley area.
