Project Information

The purpose of the trial was to address safety and amenity issues by increasing the walkable space through selected areas of the street. The approach was to widen the footpath in some areas and alleviate ‘pinch points’ along the street.

We asked stakeholders along the street (someone who lives, does business or owns property on the street) to provide feedback on the trial.

Background

Three temporary footpath extension areas were identified in consultation with associated businesses and SAPOL. These footpath extensions saw congested outdoor dining furniture move off the footpaths into extended on-street areas. Each of these areas was edged with planter boxes to provide safety from passing traffic and to contribute an element of on-street greening with low-level plants.
