The preferred route has been selected for a new shared path between Charlestown and Whitebridge, after consultation with the community.
Investigations are set to start to get construction started on the project.
It'll begin at the corner of Frederick Street and the Pacific Highway before turning down Milson Street, behind Charlestown Swim Centre.
From there, the route will run through vacant land between Milson Street and Kaleen Street, then continue along Kaleen Street before following a track through bushland to Flora Close next to Whitebridge High School.
A final stretch along Lonus Avenue and down an existing path on Kopa Street will connect to the Fernleigh Track at Whitebridge.
More than 50 percent of respondents preferred the above route, compared to other options.
