Wyndham City Council invites feedback on the Wyndham Active Transport Strategy 2026 -2035, which aims to improve the path network and increase pedestrian and cycling use.
Feedback will help shape a connected network that supports users and links residents and visitors to key destinations, while improving community safety and health outcomes.
The strategy recognises opportunities to boost daily active travel to school and work if paths were better linked, attractive and easy to navigate.
It also recognises active transport creates a healthier community, offers low-cost transport enabling residents to enjoy Wyndham’s diverse natural environment.
Highlights resulting from the existing Active Transport Strategy 2020 include:
- 63km of new footpaths constructed, connecting more than 181 streets and improving access for around 18,000 residents.
- New shared-use path links completed along sections of Davis Creek, Palmers Road, Laverton Creek, Werribee River and Skeleton Creek.
- Working with local schools to encourage walking, cycling and scooting. This included supporting students to become Active Travel Leaders, running school events to promote active travel, and providing bike checks, repairs and bike maintenance workshops for students.
