Hedges Avenue has reached a critical flashpoint, with residents likening the stretch to a 'disaster waiting to happen.' Footage from April 2026 shows e-bikes careening the wrong way, overturning vehicles, and narrowly missing pedestrians. Without immediate action, residents warn a tragedy is unavoidable. Local leaders are at odds over safety measures and funding:

* Mayor Tom Tate is pressing the State government to fast-track safety upgrades, such as moving 1960s-era power poles that narrow the footpath. He insists on a 50/50 funding split, warning that premature construction would be a waste of ratepayer funds.

* MP Ray Stevens (Mermaid Beach) advocates for immediately widening the Hedges Avenue footpath to three metres, citing the Kurrawa Park walkway as a model. He argues safety upgrades cannot wait for the light rail project's completion or Oceanway plans, accusing the council of negligence.

* The Oceanway Solution: A proposal gaining traction amidst the discord is building a dedicated beachfront path. Mayor Tate has announced design work is underway for an 800-metre section at the start of Hedges Avenue. Stevens, however, has expressed reservations about potential delays and impact on views, instead favouring immediate upgrades to existing infrastructure.
