Consultation has concluded

The City of Nedlands is proposing to construct a new footpath link along Whitfeld Street, Floreat to connect Birkdale Street to Selby Street and other nearby community facilities.

The footpath along Whitfeld Street offers the following community benefits:

  • Provide disability access
  • Provide a safe environment for pedestrians to access public transport (bus stops)
  • Provide a direct, safe and efficient pedestrian connection from Birkdale Street to Selby Street.

Prior to the construction of the footpath, the City would like to understand the community's preference regarding the location of the footpath, particularly, those residents in close proximity to the proposed location. Please provide your feedback online.

How can you get involved, find out more or provide feedback?

Submissions have been extended. New closure deadline is 5pm, Thursday, 18 March 2021.

    We have sprinklers and pipes within the verge area that will need to be relocated with the construction of the footpath. Will the council contractors do this? Similarly, if we have some native verge plants, presumably we will need to move them prior to the footpath construction? Please advise. Thankyou.

    The City intends to reinstate your reticulation system as part of the works. You may be asked to run your sprinkler system prior to works commencing to ensure it is operational. Our Site Supervisor will be available to assist throughout the duration of the works and can happily accommodate your verge plantings during construction.
