In brief:

  • Work to improve public spaces at Narrabundah shops is underway.
  • These will improve safety, accessibility and the shops’ look and feel.
  • Several other local shops across the ACT are also receiving upgrades.

Work is underway at Narrabundah shops on Iluka Street.

Narrabundah is one of several local shopping areas across Canberra receiving important public space upgrades.

The work will address access, safety and parking issues.

Improvements will also be made to the centre’s overall look and feel, through the addition of new trees and landscaping.

It’s hoped these improvements will encourage residents to shop local and spend more time in their suburbs.
