We've developed a concept masterplan for improvements to key streets in the Dickson Group Centre.

The plan outlines ways to improve the quality of the area's public spaces, creating greener and more pedestrian-friendly streets.

The concept masterplan identifies future improvements to Challis Street, Antill Street, Woolley Street, Cape Street, Badham Street and Dickson Place. It also defines the character of the streetscapes, design principles and materials.

Better City Streets

The Dickson streets concept masterplan is part of our Better City Streets initiative, which outlines the range of social, health and economic benefits of pedestrian-friendly streets.

These include features that make public spaces easier to move around and more enjoyable to spend time in. This creates opportunities for local shops and, in turn, a more attractive and exciting City Centre for all.
