Cycle recycling to get jobseekers on the road
The team at the Albury Waste Management Centre is giving new life to pre-loved bikes to help local jobseekers. The bikes are being donated to Envision which works with the Job Active Network to help the long-term unemployed. Forming part of the Work for the Dole project, the rejuvenated bikes are supplied to jobseekers who need transport. It's just one way the team is helping the environment and the community by reusing and recycling.

You'll be able to park right next to the cafe at Noreuil Park when our new parking spaces are completed later this month. I checked out progress on the works this week.

The iconic Fish Trap is back in pride of place on the Yindyamarra Sculpture Walk after a major repair job. The artwork was badly damaged by a falling tree in June but now it's as good as new and ready to welcome the thousands of visitors to our beautiful trail.
