We are upgrading the East / West Powerline Trail from Watsonia to the Plenty River Trail with support from the North East Link Project.
We will be upgrading the existing trail by:
Trail diversions will be in place, and we ask the community for patience while these upgrades are occurring.
This project will help more of the community connect with some of our amazing parks and rivers.
The trail will be built over a few stages beginning from Elder Street Reserve and building towards the Plenty River (east).
If you have any concerns or questions, contact the Open Space Planning and Design Team at OpenSpacePlanning@banyule.vic.gov.au
The user path map shows the area under the powerlines where a new and updated path will be constructed. Stage 1 will start from the left (west) in Elder Street Reserve to Wendover Place. Then, a continuation between Yallambie Road to The Grange.
Stage 2 will improve the Yallambie Road and Wendover Place intersection to incorporate the trail and future stages will look to link to the trail to the Plenty River Tail.
