Bowraville

The connection between Bowraville and Bellingen has been continuous for 160 years.

The Value Management workshop in December 2010 recognised the cultural links to the road, including the Aboriginal heritage connection to the road as "it was part of the journey of hope", when women had to walk the road to have their babies at Bellingen hospital 

The  current Bellingen/Bowraville road was not the first road connecting the two towns and the tab at the top of the blog includes a paper on the history of the road.

If you would like to add photographs or information to this blog, please email treefern@westnet.com.au.

Also on the tab bar  at the top of the blog, you can find an economic case for the restoration  and the benefits of local spending
