Kyneton - Pram crossing improvement works
Several pram crossings in Kyneton have been upgraded to improve safety and accessibility for everyone.
The project was funded by Council's Capital Works Program 2024-25 under the Pram Ramp Compliance/Safety Improvements program.
Construction started in May and was completed early June 2025.
What is a pram crossing?
It's the sloped section of a footpath that connects the path to the road, allowing easier movement across streets for prams, wheelchairs, and mobility aids.
