Safer streets, more choices: Help build Hobsons Bay's 10 year transport strategy.

Let’s design a transport future that works for everyone. Every trip in Hobsons Bay matters - the quick walk to the shops, the school drop-off, the bike ride on the weekend, public transport to work or driving across town.

That’s why Council is developing the Integrated Transport Strategy 2026–2036, a ten year strategy to improve how we move, connect and access our community.

The most important part? Your local insight. Tell us what’s working, what isn’t and what you’d like to see.

We are looking at the whole picture with a focus on

  • Connectivity

  • Accessibility

  • Sustainability

These community sessions give you the chance to share your ideas, highlight issues you experience, and tell us what opportunities you’d like to see.

The workshops include simple, interactive activities where you can note down concerns, suggest improvements, and discuss what makes it easier to move around Hobsons Bay.

Your feedback will help us inform our new ten-year Transport Strategy.
