Wentworth Shire Council is inviting the Dareton community to have its say on proposed streetscape improvements along Avoca Street, as Council prepares to commence construction of a new shared path between Matong Street and Burtundy Street.
Council is undertaking two related projects along Avoca Street: the Avoca Street Shared Path Project and the Avoca Street Beautification Project.
Council has secured funding through the Transport for NSW Get NSW Active 2025–26 program to construct a continuous and accessible shared path along Avoca Street.
The project will improve pedestrian access and connectivity between Matong Street and Burtundy Street, including connections to Dareton Public School and nearby community facilities.
Construction of the shared path is scheduled to commence in November 2026 and continue into January 2027, with construction dates subject to change.
Separate funding has also been secured for streetscape improvements along the project area. Proposed improvements may include trees, street furniture, public artwork and other beautification features.
Have your say.
Community members can provide feedback by completing the survey at https://engage.wentworth.nsw.gov.au/avoca-SPBP or using the online Social Map to identify locations where they would like to see trees, seating, artwork or other streetscape improvements.
Feedback is open until Friday 4 December 2026.
