Click on a pin to mark a point of interest along the proposed Chatswood CBD Area Bicycle route upgrade and provide comment here. You can also upload a photo of something at the site to help explain your point or use a photo of an example of something you've seen elsewhere that you would like to see in pinned location. 

While it would be ideal if Council could provide dedicated cycleway facilities, this is not something that can very often be accommodated in built up high density areas where there is not enough road space.
