The Project
Sport and Recreation Tasmania recently engaged consultants from Inspiring Place to develop a state mountain bike plan for Tasmania. The plan, which is expected to be released in August 2009, will provide a framework for the coordinated development and marketing of mountain bike opportunities in Tasmania.

Context
The Trails Tasmania Strategy was released by the State Government in December 2007. The Trails Tasmania Strategy recognised the strong and growing demand for mountain biking trails and identified a lack of provision to meet current demand, particularly for mountain biking trails and facilities close to where people live. The Trails Tasmania Strategy recommended the development of a state mountain bike plan and presented several strategies directly related to mountain biking.
The State Government committed $4 million in the 2008/09 state budget to support tracks, trails and city bikeways. Sport and Recreation Tasmania has allocated a portion of this funding to the development of this mountain bike plan.

Project Steering Committee
Sport and Recreation Tasmania will act as the lead agency and project manager. A steering committee for the project has been established with the following representatives:
Keith Ryan (Sport and Recreation Tasmania)
Luke Chiu (Sport and Recreation Tasmania)
Chris Colley (Parks and Wildlife Service)
Michael Easton (Wellington Park Management Trust)
Frank Hussey (Tourism Tasmania)
Richard Skinner (Forestry Tasmania).

Opportunities for Input
Land managers, mountain bike riders and other stakeholders will have the opportunity to provide input into the plan through a series of community and land manager forums to be held in June 2009. The community forums are open to mountain bike riders, other stakeholders and the general public. Three community forums, one in each region, will be held at the following dates, times and venues:
North West Community Forum
22 June (Monday)
7:00-9:00 pm
Ulverstone Surf Life Saving Club

Northern Community Forum
23 June (Tuesday)
7:00-9:00 pm
West Tamar Council Chambers, Riverside

Southern Community Forum
24 June (Wednesday)
7:00-9:00 pm
Domain Athletics Centre, Hobart

Interested individuals and organisations will also have the opportunity to comment on the draft strategy, which is expected to be released in August 2009. The draft strategy will be available for download from this website.

Survey

In addition to the community forums, members of the public will have the opportunity to provide input into the plan through an online survey, which can be found below. The survey should only take 5-10 to complete.

All those who complete the survey go into the draw to win one of two National Parks Annual All Parks Passes.
