Connecting our community through safe footpaths is one of the ways we’re building a better Manningham.

As part of our 2024/25 Capital Works Program, we’re constructing a new footpath connection on Newmans Road, Templestowe, to improve accessibility and safety.

Works will include:

• construction of a new footpath.

Where is it?

The footpath will be built on the northern side of Newmans Road, between Websters Road and Heidelberg-Warrandyte Road in Templestowe.

When will the works happen?

Construction is scheduled to begin in January 2025 and completed by March 2025.  Timelines are subject to weather conditions and contractor availability.

Why is the footpath needed?

This footpath will connect the existing footpaths on Websters Road, improving pedestrian connectivity. The upgrade will provide a safe and accessible walking route to encourage healthier, more active lifestyles.

How will the works affect me?

The works will take place on weekdays during the hours of 7.00am and 5.00pm. There may be some construction noise and temporary disruptions to driveway access. We will contact the affected properties directly prior to construction.

We appreciate your patience and understanding while we work to improve the footpath connections in your area.
