Footpaths in Wyndham are designed to ensure safe access for pedestrians, including those with prams, wheelchairs, or mobility scooters. It is important to keep footpaths clear and free from any obstructions.

Urgent requests

If the footpath or nature strip is blocked and poses a danger, please report it to the Council by calling 1300 023 411.

Nature strip obstruction

There may be instances where the nature strips subside, posing a tripping hazard that needs assessment by our Nature strip Technical Officer. If it's on your property, it is your responsibility to maintain it according to the Nature Strip Landscaping Guidelines Brochure guidelines.
Placing large rocks, metal or wooden stakes, signs, or other obstructions (outside the plantings allowable under the Nature Strip Beautification Policy) is not allowed.
