The survey is now closed.
Safer Cities: Her Way is a collaborative partnership project between Transport for NSW and Wollongong City Council.
We aimed to improve perceptions of safety for women, girls and gender diverse people when travelling to, through and within public spaces and transport hubs.
The project has been trialing how to make public spaces feel safer through pilot projects at:
Wollongong CBD - at MacCabe Park, near Burelli Street
Port Kembla Town Centre
Dapto Town Centre.
In 2023 we conducted community mapping followed by walks and workshops with community members to design interventions for each place.
We've held events that activated spaces from November 2023 to June 2024 and made other improvements to each space. You can read more about the project and interventions here.
How do these public spaces feel before and after our interventions?
We are getting the last improvements in at Dapto Square, with lighting at Port Kembla coming soon. All works are now complete at MacCabe Park with fairy lighting installed in trees.
To see how well the interventions worked we are measuring the quality of each public space and will compare this to a survey taken before our interventions.
Fill in the survey while you are visiting MacCabe Park in Wollongong and go in the draw to win 1 of 5 x $50 gift cards.
