We want to make it easy and enjoyable for you to use our great places, like Avalon Beach village. So, we’ve created a new safer space for people to hang out, shop and relax.
This is a temporary trial funded through the Department of Planning, Industry and Environment's Streets as Shared Spaces program. The program trials projects which test ideas for permanent improvements to local streets, paths and public spaces.
It’s also a key action in the My Place - Avalon Beach Plan following extensive community feedback.
Some of the key changes include:
- widening footpaths and enhancing outdoor dining areas
- moving pedestrian crossings
- installing planter boxes and seating
- installing shade structure - charge your phone while enjoying a treat from your local cafes.
We'd love to hear what you think about these changes and if you'd like to keep them when the trial ends - please share your feedback in our survey. The survey is open throughout the trial period and closes on Wednesday 28 February 2024.
You can also send feedback throughout the duration of the trial to council@northernbeaches.nsw.gov.au.
