Verges are classified as Crown Land and are a shared streetscape asset for crossovers / resident access, pedestrians, service utilities and connections to nature reserves.

As the Shire of Mundaring has approximately 1300km of verges across the Shire it does not have the capacity or resources to manage the upkeep of all of them. The Shire therefore encourages the collaborative effort of all landowners and residents in maintaining and improving the verge area adjacent to their property, fostering community pride and responsibility.

Residents are also invited to explore the benefits of incorporating their verges into their own fire hazard management plans, ensuring a safer environment for everyone to enjoy.

Residents can refer to the following resources to assist them with verge maintenance and management.
