Sydney Road is the gateway into Manly from the west.

It is seen as Manly’s dining room, providing a more intimate and relaxed outdoor dining setting, compared to the high level of activity along The Corso.

Improvements to this area will emphasise the sense of arrival into the Manly centre from the west, as well as building on Sydney Road's eat-street character.

Concept design ideas include:

  • wider footpaths
  • new trees and planting
  • new lighting/art to illuminate the fig trees
  • outdoor dining opportunities.

Click the markers on the image below to see examples of possible improvements. The concept designs also outline some artist impressions of the future of Manly centre. Exploring these will assist you in completing the quick survey on the project home page.
