ENVIRONMENTAL groups oppose plans for a shared bike path beside the Moorooduc-to-Mornington railway line.
A joint letter with 11 signatories was sent to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council last month “expressing deep concerns about the environmental impact of the proposed shared bike path”.
They say the path “hosts the best remnants of significant vegetation … which are now depleted and rare in Victoria, as well as individual species which are state and federally listed as threatened”.
