Background

In 2022 we asked the community what it wanted to see for future upgrades in the Westmeadows Public Space Plan.

We asked about features such as what plants, street furniture and lighting you'd like to see. We also asked what sites in the area were a priority for upgrades.

The Fawkner Street Village Shops were voted by the community as the top priority for upgrading.

We've taken on board what we heard and have designed a streetscape upgrade for Fawkner Street. You are invited to have your say on the concept plan.

The plan includes:

  • Improved feature pavement and surface treatment
  • Improved pedestrian access
  • New street furniture and fixtures
  • Feature lighting
  • Revised traffic and parking arrangement and road resurfacing.
