The Moonee Ponds Creek is rural in its upper sections near Greenvale, passing across basalt plains towards the urban lower sections. Much of the lower creek has been heavily modified as part of extensive development of the lower floodplain.
Improvement works: Works in recent years have focused on enhancing habitat and stabilising, reshaping and replanting the banks of the creek.
A major stormwater improvement program is also underway in the creek's catchment area, and wetlands at Jacana and litter traps have been built.
