Every year, thousands of new residents choose to move to the Wyndham area. And it’s not hard to see why. Our city is one of the fastest growing municipalities in Australia. But rapid population growth is outpacing infrastructure investment. That means more congestion, longer wait times for services and less time with family.
But there is a way forward.
With the right investment and strong partnerships, Wyndham can remain a city where people can live, learn, work and thrive.
With the 2026 Victorian State Election approaching, this is a critical opportunity to secure investment in the infrastructure our community needs. That’s why Wyndham City is inviting our community to join us in calling on all political parties in the 2026 State Election to invest in Wyndham.
