Increasing pedestrian movement
We plan the construction of our city’s footpaths, shared paths and trails by identifying the routes that pedestrians use more often on their journeys.
We use community feedback and other key areas to identify this network and locate where new footpaths are needed and plan for their construction.
Works to build a new footpath are prioritised by:
- the pedestrian demand
- the type of road
- its location relative to various facilities within the community
- the proximity to public transport.
Timeframes for new footpath projects can be affected by factors such as major road projects or large scale developments throughout Manningham.

By improving your home's efficiency, you can lower your bills and create a more comfortable home for your family.
Interested in making your home more comfortable and energy efficient, but don’t know where to start?
Our expert presenter Lucinda has worked with hundreds of households to improve their home's comfort and energy efficiency.
Instead of focusing on how to upgrade, Lucinda will help you review the strengths and weaknesses of your own home, so that you feel confident about where to start and how to prioritise your efforts.
During the session, we’ll talk about:
- how heat moves in and out of homes, so you can identify the areas creating heat movement (loss or gain)
- home upgrades that can reduce heat movement such as draught sealing, insulation, window treatments, glazing, frames and shading
- identify the most important upgrades for your home
- review and rank your major appliances in terms of age, efficiency and need for upgrade
There will be time for questions throughout, so you can understand what matters and why.
We will also provide a matching data collection sheet to take home, plus additional resources, so that you can gather further information and pinpoint areas you need to investigate further.
One week after this event, join an optional one-hour online Q&A, where you can ask all of those questions you forgot to ask or didn't realise you needed to!
Registrations are essential and places are limited due to venue capacity.
- This workshop is funded by Manningham Council and hosted in partnership with Wonga Park Community Cottage.

… Gardener & Alexandra Runge Doncaster Playhouse Arts Manningham Doncaster Playhouse Whats On … The Crucible …
Hysteria runs rampant in Puritan Salem, Massachusetts. A group of young girls and a slave were found dancing in the woods and conjuring spells. After one of the girls falls ill, the town suspects it is the work of the devil and local witches. However, all is not what it seems. John Proctor, a local farmer, suspects that the local witchcraft is not witchcraft at all, but the invention of a scorned teenage girl. Neighbour turns on neighbour as Proctor fights to restore sense to the town and save many from the hangman’s noose.
