Slacks Creek

Slacks Creek Implementation Plan

The Slacks Creek Implementation Plan (PDF 24 MB) identifies and prioritises a number of place-based actions that contributes to delivering the vision for Slacks Creek. Following the Springwood Summit several key initiatives and actions were endorsed by Council which informed the Springwood Implementation Plan (2019). The Slacks Creek Implementation Plan has extracted the Slacks Creek specific actions from Springwood Implementation Plan, and has been created to reflect projects delivered since 2019 and updates to the Slacks Creek place-based actions for the next five-year period (2023 to 2028).

Slacks Creek priority projects completed

Slacks Creek Green Link – Stage 1 (Baker Street to Moss Street)

The project was completed in May 2020 and now connects Compton Road with Moss Street by the creation of a new 3m wide shared pathway. The pathway will meanders through parkland with a new bridge to connect both sides of the creek and includes improved landscaping in the Slacks Creek Catchment, shade structures, bins and lighting, and integration of cycling infrastructure with open space and public art.
