The Upper Duck River Wetlands are surrounded by public land owned and managed by Auburn Council in the east, and Parramatta City Council in the west. Major landowners include State Rail Corporation, Australia Post, and others. The Wetlands are of regional conservation significance, providing home to three Endangered Ecological Communities and several threatened species, and are highly valued by the local community. The subject area provides opportunities for passive recreational activities, and is surrounded by numerous sporting facilities and playing fields in both Local Government Areas (LGAs). Overall, however, the wetlands are in a degraded condition with numerous environmental and hydrological issues. This plan presents a detailed vegetation management action program. High priority actions include controlling weeds and pollutants at the source, community education, additional shared use footpath/cycleways and the installation of signage.

We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples as the First Peoples of Australia. Cumberland City Council also acknowledges other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples living and working in the Cumberland Local Government Area. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF PARTICIPANTS Cumberland City Council would like to acknowledge and thank everyone who participated in this research. This report would not have been possible without your time and willingness to share your stories and experiences. Document Set ID: 8005199 Version: 9, Version Date: 13/08/2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report presents findings from research into key transport and mobility challenges for the Cumberland community. This research was conducted between August 2019 and April 2020 and is grounded in empirical data sourced from the Australian Bureau of Statistics and Transport for NSW, amongst other sources, and extensive community engagement. Quality transport options are fundamental to accessing many essential services, education, employment and social and recreational activities. Although three train lines run through the Cumberland LGA, in addition to the T80 high frequency bus route, many Cumberland residents still have difficulties getting around. Major barriers raised by the community relate to reliability, frequency and coverage of services.
