August 2004. Bicycle Network Victoria met with Council staff to look at how the bicycle network in Maryborough can be improved. A new education precinct in the NW corner of town will be the focus of shared path connections and on-road bike lanes. Council will also complete the shared path along Derby Rd to Goldfields Reservoir and the shared path between Maryborough and Carisbrook.

It was discussed widening bike lanes and narrowing vehicle lanes where possible, which will improve the level of service for cyclists. This has already been done on the Bendigo-Maryborough Rd, although it gets tight on the approach toTuaggra St.
