Improved infrastructure means improved experience

Mr Chester said, "I am a huge advocate for keeping active and supporting local businesses and this group is doing both by riding around East Gippsland and enjoying meals at different venues along the way."

"The group utilises the East Gippsland Rail Trail and the current upgrades along the trail will help improve their experience with a smoother riding surface. Improving community infrastructure means locals can stay active and explore our region via bike or walking." Mr Chester said.
