About
Golden Plains Shire Council is seeking feedback from the community on the draft Footpath Strategy 2024-2034 (the draft Strategy) after it was endorsed for public exhibition at the 25 June Council meeting.
The draft Strategy was developed following community consultation in 2023 which consisted of three in-person community forums as well as an online consultation opportunity.
The draft Strategy assists Council in managing its current footpath assets and will help develop pedestrian networks to every township by delivering and upgrading footpaths across the Shire over a 10-year period. It aims to identify and recommend future upgrades and new footpath construction priorities and proactively plan for ongoing maintenance.
The draft Strategy will provide a detailed framework for assessing footpath usage, enabling Council to gather vital data and insights, which will guide future improvements and maintenance efforts, ensuring that our footpaths meet the evolving needs of the community.
How You Can Be Involved
Community members are invited to provide feedback on the draft Strategy from Thursday 27 June to 9am, Thursday 25 July 2024 online via this page; by email to [email protected] or mailed to Golden Plains Shire Council, PO Box 111, Bannockburn, VIC, 3331.
