In 2017, Council received a community submission as part of the budget consultation process to improve pedestrian access across Douglas Parade, Newport. This project was included in the 2018-19 capital works budget.

Council has undertaken pedestrian and traffic counts on Douglas Parade, between Yarra and Wilkins Streets. From this information, Council has developed draft concept plans detailing a number of options for the two main intersections within this precinct, including the types of calming treatments we would consider for each of the intersections within the precinct.

You are invited to provide your thoughts and feedback on the proposed improvements.

Below are the Community Benefits and Project Categories that the creator of this project has nominated for their initiative. Share your thoughts on these in the Comments tab above.
