Friends of the Aqueduct Trail
Vicki WARD (Eltham – Minister for Prevention of Family Violence, Minister for Employment) (10:39): Thank you, Nillumbik councillor Frances Eyre, George from Nillumbik, Andrew Bakos and the newly formed Friends of the Aqueduct Trail group, for our fantastic first planting day. The popular 4-kilometre Maroondah Aqueduct Trail links Allendale Road in Eltham to Main Road in Research along the aqueduct and is great for cycling, running and my preferred mode, walking. In an amazing effort we planted around 400 native trees, wildflowers and grasses together, further enhancing this beautiful council area. I have wanted to see this group begin for some time, and I thank her for her ongoing commitment to seeing this friends group begin.
