Open Space Lighting Policy

This Policy provides direction on the installation of lighting within Open Spaces including shared paths, thoroughfares and open space destinations.

Wyndham City is committed to providing lighting, where it will encourage safe movement and active travel around the city, increase the usage of Open Spaces at appropriate times, and minimise environmental impacts.

This Policy is based on the following three key objectives:

Provide lighting that supports safe movement through Open Spaces.
Provide lighting that activates Open Spaces at appropriate times.
Locate and design lighting to minimise impacts on native flora and fauna.

Acknowledgement of Traditional Custodians

Wyndham City Council recognises Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first Peoples of Australia. We acknowledge the Bunurong and Wadawurrung Peoples as Traditional Owners of the lands on which Wyndham City operates. The Wadawurrung and Bunurong Peoples have and always will belong to the Werribee Yalook (river), creeks, stars, hills and red clay of this Country. We pay respect to their Ancestors and Elders who always have, and always will, care for Country and community today and for future generations.
