Maribyrnong Public Toilet Plan 2019-2029

Footscray-Park-Toilet.jpg

Council will be delivering 10 new public toilets across the City in the next ten years with the adoption of the Maribyrnong Public Toilet Plan 2019-2029 (the Plan). 

The objective of the Plan is to ensure that the most popular parks and public spaces within the City have an equitable provision of public toilets that are accessible to all.

Public toilets make an important contribution to the liveability of the City by supporting the health and wellbeing of residents and visitors participating in leisure and shopping activities.

The Plan focuses on the provision of toilets in spaces that support extended stays. This will include key regional and municipal open spaces where amenities such as barbecues, park shelters and large playgrounds attract family groups. Similarly, in activity centres where it can be demonstrated that a high proportion of visitors come from outside the City for a diverse range of experiences and services, such as central Footscray.

The location and delivery (in order) of the new toilets are listed below.

  1. Hansen Reserve, West Footscray
  2. Grimes Reserve, Footscray
  3. Cruickshank Park, Yarraville
  4. Seddon Village, Seddon
  5. Yarraville Gardens, Yarraville
  6. Cranwell Park, Braybrook
  7. Quarry Park, Maribyrnong
  8. Johnson Reserve, West Footscray
  9. Dobson Reserve, Maidstone
  10. Robert Barrett Reserve, Maribyrnong
