Oceanway

For the community in the United States, see Oceanway, Florida.

An oceanway is a form of foreshoreway that provides sustainable public access along an oceanfront area. The terminology was derived to avoid the perception of a pavement favouring either pedestrians (footpath) or cyclists (bikeway).

An oceanway corridor often includes a number of traffic streams that provide access along an oceanfront area including:

• soft shore movements (e.g. walking along the sandy beach)
• edge of foreshore off road green mode pavement (foreshoreway)
• edge of road off road green mode pavement
• on road bikeway
• on road private vehicles movements
• on road public transport corridor

Another common type of foreshoreway is called a riverwalk, which provides public access along a river.
