Did you know, most speeding deaths occur at no more than 10km/h over the speed limit?

Driving to conditions and slower speeds improves a driver’s ability to stop and avoid crashes, especially in residential areas.

Ensure you drive safely and to local conditions.

‘Slow Down in My Street’ is jointly funded by Transport for NSW and Council, with enforcement support from local Police to make our streets safer for everyone.

🔋 Keep batteries out of your bins!

We’ve had 3 fires in the past 2 weeks caused by batteries - one in a collection vehicle and two at our waste facilities.

Batteries can cause dangerous fires when placed in household bins. Help keep our community and waste crews safe by disposing of them correctly.

All batteries, both loose and embedded, can be taken to Katoomba or Blaxland Resource Recovery and Waste Management Facilities for safe disposal at no additional cost. Find your nearest facility here : https://www.bmcc.nsw.gov.au/facility-drop-off

Please do the right thing and never put batteries in your household bins!

Whether you’re wanting to find a job, look for community services, or pay your rates we have a wealth of information on living in the Blue Mountains. In this section you can also find information on animals, buying and selling property and waste and recycling.

🌳📢🌿 Tree maintenance works along Sinclair Crescent between the Great Western Highway and Wentworth Falls Lake will take place from 4-6 November 2026, 7am-3:30pm. Contraflow traffic management will be in place to provide a safe working area for crews and road users.

We ask motorists to follow traffic control directions and thank them for their patience, as they may experience short delays. The proactive program will reduce the risk of tree-related hazards and future emergency tree works, supporting the management of Council's urban forest.

📢 Have you heard? A Food Organics Garden Organics (FOGO) service is coming to the Blue Mountains in July 2027! This means that from the middle of next year, your green bin will be collected weekly and will accept food scraps, as well as garden organics. Instead of these food scraps going to landfill, they will be turned into compost for gardens and agriculture, helping to protect our precious environment.
