Overview
The ACT Government's City Renewal Authority is seeking your ideas and input on a concept masterplan outlining future public space upgrades on Cooyong Street to create better city streets.
A concept design master plan is a big plan for the future. It helps us know what to do and when to do it, so we can grow and improve the area.
The Cooyong Street project involves developing ideas and actions for improving north-south pedestrian connections between the City Centre and Braddon.
The goal is to make it safer and easier for residents, workers and visitors to move around Cooyong Street. This includes pedestrians, cyclists, those who use light rail and the bus network.
Many Canberrans rely on Cooyong Street to commute to work and to visit the city. We are focused on a design that compliments the current arrangements and achieves a balance of movement options including road and pedestrian and bike paths.
This will build on the Braddon streetscape upgrade and it will invite more people to explore the precinct's bars, restaurants and retail shops, as well as nearby Haig Park.
