Berwick residents are encouraged to have their say on a proposal to install a new public toilet block at the Berwick Springs Wetlands Reserve.
As part of the Berwick Springs Wetlands Reserve Masterplan endorsed by Casey Council in 2016, Berwick locals identified the need for a public toilet to be installed within the reserve.
Following community feedback sourced by Casey Council in October 2022, public toilets were initially proposed to be installed alongside the upgrade of the west playground.
The toilets will be installed within the reserve along The Esplanade adjacent to the Berwick Springs Wetlands south playground for increased visibility, safety and convenience.
The proposal for these restrooms include two unisex toilets and an accessible toilet including baby change facilities to cater for all residents of Berwick and beyond, as well as aesthetically modern design features and with plenty of natural light and ventilation to ensure the public restrooms are accessible and safe.
Feedback closes on Friday 16 February.
