Name Ross River ParkwayDescriptionThe Ross River Parkway consists of continuous community open space along both banks of the picturesque Ross River, interspersed with high quality recreation facilities, all linked by over 30 kilometres of shared pathways. It is now possible to walk or cycle all the way from the Townsville CBD to the Upper Ross River via the riverside shared pathway system. Major footbridges and road bridge links over the river create a series of recreation circuits of varying length to suit all tastes. The Ross River Parkway project is jointly funded by Townsville City Council and the Queensland Government and is becoming recognised as one of regional Australia’s best recreational parkway networks.
