Welcome to Wyong Shire's newest street!sustainability street logo

Sustainability Street is a place where residents carry out projects like waste reduction, reconnecting community relationships, enhancing local biodiversity, and practising water and energy efficiency.

And, you can use this page to follow their progress and share their successes. For example, see the latest project newsletter (PDF - 236 KB)

Why Sustainability Street?
The project is a community environmental program underway in eight local government areas within New South Wales.

Wyong Shire’s ‘Sustainability Streets’ are at East Budgewoi; the Gravity Youth Centre at Lake Haven; and the Mannering Parkprimary school.

At East Budgewoi, the local Dunecare group is focusing its ‘Sustainability Street’ on two stands of broad leaf paper bark forest. A sign has been erected to mark the area where Dunecare members are working with Wyong Shire Council, residents and visitors to enhance the fauna and flora and provide examples of water and energy conservation.

Gravity Youth Centre is to become the site of a healing garden, while the Mannering Park project will involve a community garden.
