The City has developed a plan for landscape improvements to the carpark at the corner of Main and Hutton Streets, Osborne Park.
Construction to the Main Street Carpark is due to commence in May and features landscape improvements that will create a local hub for the community to forge deeper relationships and help shape the local area.
Over a five-week consultation period, feedback was provided by locals which informed the final concept design. Once complete this new bump-in space will provide a space for community led events and improve pedestrian amenities.
Landscape upgrades
Improvements will include:
A 5.5x4m shelter, which will also result in the removal of an additional 2 parking spaces
The removal of 2 additional parking spaces associated with the shelter expansion above, will provide space for the inclusion of 2 bike racks near the shelter
An additional tree will be installed to the car park area
The drink fountain is relocated north adjacent to the palm tree
Planting of smooth barked apple trees in the car park, and alternating London plane trees and spotted gums on the verge.
