Brisbane Valley Rail Trail Survey – NOW OPEN
Since November 2007, parts of the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail (BVRT) have been open for multi-use purposes – walking, mountain biking and horse riding. To ensure the trails have plenty of use and are valuable to participants and the community, the Queensland Outdoor Recreation Federation (QORF) needs to know who is using the trail, that is: when are you going, what are you doing and what things make the trail great…or could make it better? The Qld Outdoor Recreation Federation (QORF) and the Department of Infrastructure and Planning (DIP) are inviting you to participate in this Brisbane Valley Rail Trail User Survey. Through this survey, you can express your opinion and experiences of the trails and offer any suggestions for improvements. The BVRT User Survey will help us understand the demographics, motivations and experiences of the current users which will provide us with information for future growth and management. |

Bethania Beaudesert Rail Trail Proposal
Logan City Council is undertaking a Recreation Trails Strategy that aims to identify a number of key land and waterbased trail opportunities. What do we mean by a recreation trail? For the purpose of this survey it is defined as any corridor, route or pathway for non-motorised recreation, such as walking, mountain biking, canoeing or recreational horse riding, which passes through or has a strong connection with the natural environment, open spaces and cultural heritage. Have your say and tell us where you want to see trails and how you want to use them.
