📣ADVOCATING FOR THE FUTURE OF MURRUMBATEMAN
We’re pleased to share that, following ongoing advocacy from the MCA, MURRUMBATEMAN HIGH SCHOOL has now been added to Yass Valley Council’s Advocacy for Infrastructure priority list ahead of the 2027 NSW Election.
⭐This is what MCA is all about — keeping Murrumbateman’s voice at the table & advocating for the things our community needs.
⭐From roads and transport, to education, emergency services, environment, community facilities, local business & liveability, our volunteer members are constantly working behind the scenes to push important issues forward.
⭐Some campaigns take months. Others take years – like the Murrumbateman public primary school. The Murrumbateman High School was previously advocated in 2022 YVC Federal & State government support priorities & much work is still to be done.
⭐That is what MCA advocacy is about: keeping Murrumbateman’s voice at the table, on a wide range of issues, & continuing to show up.
📣If you want to help - join MCA today

Welcome to the Murrumbateman Community Association The goal of the MCA is to support the development and sustainability of a vibrant Murrumbateman regiona

A big thank you to Council and our community 👏
A huge thank you to Council for including this project in its application for the NSW Get Active grant. The project will look at improvements from West St to Rose St to address concerns raised by MCA, residents and local businesses about children being able to get safely to school.

MCA has been advocating for this issue for many years, and a special thank you to our Vice President, Rowan Geddes, who has brought fresh energy and momentum to the campaign, working tirelessly to unite the Rose St businesses, RFS and Murrumbateman Public School behind this, and to overlap with additional works proposed along Rose St to Hercules St and the new playground.

Thank you, Rowan, and a big thank you to all the businesses who provided letters of support to get this safety issue firmly on Council’s agenda!

Yass Valley residents will soon have more opportunities to walk, wheel and ride safely, thanks to more than $2.6 million in funding awarded to Yass Valley Council through the Get NSW Active program.

On the road today visiting other villages in Yass Valley. CHECK OUT the new signage for Binalong. NSW Transport has rolled out for road safety improvements at Binalong - town entry gateway treatments includes painting on the road surface to clearly state the Km/hr speed limit. It would be great to have same for Murrumbateman (wider sign needed) helping to increase safety within town limits and hopefully placement further out, especially on the north side of Hillview Drive.

🌱 Blue gums along the Barton Highway near Murrumbateman, 18 May 1949

A view of the roadside trees planted in 1937 along the Barton Highway section, known as the Yass-Canberra Highway at the time.

Tree planting on rural roadsides had been carried out to a limited extent. Roadside conditions were a severe test for planted trees and the maintenance was costly. However, planting roadside trees was not only justified by an aesthetic reason, but also a provision of shade and prevention of erosion.
