Delivering an Urban Forest for Carrum Downs

15 October 2026

A re-elected Carroll Labor Government will invest $200,000 to deliver more shade and green space for locals in Carrum Downs.

Labor’s investment will deliver tree-lined boulevards, an urban forest and pocket parks.

Labor knows local green spaces are where communities come together.

That’s why we’re backing a greener Carrum Downs.

The alternative is a Liberal-One Nation Coalition making $40 billion in cuts.

“Labor is delivering more open spaces that locals use every day.”

Quotes attributable to Member for Carrum Sonya Kilkenny

“Carrum Downs deserves more trees, more shade and more green spaces for families to enjoy.”

“This investment will help make our neighbourhoods greener, cooler and better places to live.”
