On October 26th 2022 I discovered that a new galvanised walking track bridge had been built at the mouth of Browns Creek, where it enters the Manning River.
A wide concrete path leads to the bridge from the western end of Pitt and Nelson Streets near the old Peters Milk Factory Wharf.
The pathway and bridge allow new access in 2022 from the east across Browns Creek to the Taree Bicentennial Gardens, which up till now have been tucked away and underutilised on a peninsula between Browns Creek and the Manning River.
Presumably the path will eventually be continued east to the proposed future redevelopment of the old Peeress Butter Factory site fronting the Manning River. That project, which has been in the planning phase for many years, will potentially revitalise the historic Chatham Manning River front and will be known as 'Figtrees on the Manning'.
In the longer term it will also extend to Taree Recreation Centre at Chatham.
For now, the bridge gives access from Pitt and Nelson Streets west through the Taree Bicentennial Gardens.
Those who might explore a little further will find that the path through the gardens extends to a new walking cycling trail completed in December 2021 which links from under Browns Creek Bridge along the western side of Browns Creek through mangrove swamp forest and rainforest all the way to Muscio Park.
