Have your say on the Draft Ouyen Walking and Cycling Plan
The Draft Ouyen Walking and Cycling Plan is now available for review and feedback.
Developed to address and support active transport participation, pedestrian and cyclist safety, and road safety more generally. Some of the key recommendations of the plan include:
- Improving links to key destinations within the township (Ouyen P-12 College, Oke Street shops, Blackburn Park, Ouyen Lake etc)
- Creating safer crossing opportunities at key locations along the Calder and Mallee Highways
- Upgrading/providing shared user paths to provide off-road facilities for connections to key destinations
The Draft Ouyen Walking and Cycling Plan has been developed following an extensive community and stakeholder consultation period, a review of the existing footpath network and past community enquiries related to road safety, an analysis of traffic and pedestrian movements and a review of recent crash data.
Feedback closes 5pm on Sunday 1 February 2026 and can be provided via the below survey.
Hard copies of the Draft Plan and survey are also available by visiting Council’s Ouyen Customer Service Centre.
The Ouyen Walking and Cycling Plan has received $30,000 in funding from the Transport Accident Commission (TAC) Local Government Grant Program to support its development.
