Today, I’m going to Millennium Promenade
I can walk along wide waterside paths with planting, seating, and harbour views.
At the crossing
I need to take care when crossing the road.
After I cross the road
I can see open views towards the harbour and buildings.
Down the path
I can walk slowly along the wide planted path.
Cyclists and pedestrians may use the promenade.
Seating
I can stop here to sit and rest.
I can choose a bench away from the main path if I would like a quieter place to sit.
Things to listen
I might hear grasses moving in the wind.
Walk to the water
I can follow the path towards quieter waterside spaces.
Under the bridge
Sounds may echo here near the bridge and water.
I may also hear people and activity from nearby cafes and shops.
Seating
I can sit here. I may hear water moving in the harbour and grass rustling in the wind.
Walk to water
The pontoon can feel I bit wobbly, I can get closer to the harbour and boats.
The pontoon and harbour area may feel busier at some times of day.
Back up the path
I can go under the bridge to return up the path.
Crossing point
I need to check for traffic and cyclists before crossing.
