Milestones

Why are we doing this?

Lighting - Stage 1 and 2

The existing green colour goose neck lights between Elwood canal and Elwood Angling Club were at the end of their useful life. We have now completed stage 1 and 2 of the the streetlight replacement works at foreshore. New energy efficient LEDs lights illuminate the footpath and cycle path providing a safe environment for all users at Elwood Foreshore.

Revegetating the site with native species

While we are planting, this site will be cordoned off. Please do not interfere with these areas to ensure that the vegetation have a healthy chance to thrive during this delicate period.

The impact

Stage 1 Revegetation

Objectives

The new lighting on the foreshore provides:

  • a well-lit footpath and cycle path
  • a beautiful foreshore with thriving native plants
  • promotion of a safe public environment
  • more energy-efficient LED lighting that uses less electricity.
