"Walking in freedom is a cornerstone of human dignity"

Walk On Moreland is creating a walking culture in and around the suburbs of Moreland.  Through our actions we aim to make walking a safe, convenient, exciting, friendly, dignified and enjoyable way to get from A to B in Moreland.  


We have come together as a reaction to the dangerous, angry, noisy, and unpleasant mix of roads, cars, and drivers which is all too common in Moreland.  


We are a community organisation which works through community engagement, advocacy, and community action to progress our vision.  We see as our stakeholders all those who are pedestrians in Moreland, with special mention for the elderly, young children & families, people who have difficulty walking long distances, and people using a wheelchair, shopping trolley, pram or other mobility aid.


We welcome all those who share this vision to join us.

  2. The Walk on Moreland is a great idea. I particularly like the quote. I regularly walk and cycle through the intersection of Munro St and Railway Parade and totally agree that it is very dangerous without traffic lights. I encourage the council to act upon this initiative.
