Carving its way through a densely urbanised landscape, the Dandenong Creek corridor provides a vital haven and biolink for native flora and fauna, as well as for the region’s human inhabitants. The corridor includes the creek itself, as well as the wide belt of parklands, bushlands and wetlands that connect to it.

Thanks to ongoing funding from the Victorian Government’s Our Catchments, Our Communities initiative, Melbourne Water and many other government organisations have banded together to transform the Dandenong Creek corridor into a world-class urban ‘Living Link’.

Living Links partnership projects that have been completed or proposed within the Dandenong Creek corridor can be explored at our online map. There is also increasing public use and appreciation of the corridor through working bees, citizen science monitoring activities and educational events.
