Over the last six months, Council has been talking to the community about sharing open space with dogs including at Robinson Reserve where we have created a timed off leash area for dog walking in the north of the park. The pilot program finished in February.

Thank you for all your feedback about the trial Dog Walking project changes. We are now analysing data, reviewing outcomes and preparing a report to Council on the roll out of these changes across all Merri-bek off-leash parks and reserves.
