East Gippsland Shire Council joined Lindenow South community members on Thursday, March 7, to celebrate the completion of a footpaths project.
The footpath, next to the busy Lindenow-Glenaladale Road, links the town’s primary school and recreation reserve.
The project, totalling just more than $1 million, includes approximately 650 metres of concrete footpath and elevated boardwalk, as well as the replacement and relocation of bus shelters to accommodate a bus holding lane.
The celebration, held at Lindenow South Primary School, brought together residents, students, dignitaries and community groups to commemorate the project’s achievements and unveil Lindenow South Primary School’s new Indigenous logo and colours.
The day included speeches, a ribbon-cutting ceremony, photo opportunities and a smoking ceremony and Welcome to Country. The event concluded with a walk along the paths.
