Woodville Road is changing
In 2010 we asked you what you would like to see in the future. From your ideas we have completed a number of actions to improve the Woodville Road precinct such as re-establishing the Woodville Town Hall as a vibrant entertainment venue and building the new St Clair Recreation Centre.
In 2019 we consulted on the Woodville Road Streetscape Upgrade Project. The concept design included:
- Maintaining two lanes of traffic in each direction in peak hours and introducing sheltered right turns to side streets
- Improving pedestrian movement, linkages and providing safe crossing points
- Landscaping and greenery
- Opportunities for new commercial and residential development
- Public art
- Smart technology elements
- Public places that encourage social activity
Your feedback from the consultation helped to shape the final streetscape design.
For information on the background of the project, including feedback from consultation and designs, please visit our dedicated community engagement website - Your Say.
