Pedestrian & Wayfinding Strategy

In November 2007 Council adopted the Pedestrian Wayfinding Strategy Report (PDF - 2083KB) and Pedestrian Wayfinding Strategy Appendix (PDF - 1524KB) following the public exhibition and submission processes which ended in October 2007.

City of Ballarat developed the strategy in partnership with Major Projects Victoria with the aim to transform the centre of Ballarat into a world class-walking environment based on the following vision.

Vision

Over the next five years central Ballarat will be transformed into a world-class walking environment, where it is easy to 'wayfind' and where it is safe and enjoyable to walk. People can walk into and around the CDB with ease, in comfort and with minimal delay. The many retail, service, educational, historic destinations and buildings can be accessed and enjoyed by people of all abilities in a high quality pedestrian environment. Over this period the amount of walking in the Ballarat CBD will at least double.
