East Crescent Street Shared Space Trial
Consultation has concluded
Feedback closes 30 June 2023 (extended)
A new pocket park and shared zone in McMahons Point will be trialled at the corner of East Crescent Street and Blues Point Road. The project is funded through the NSW Government’s Streets as Shared Spaces Program.
The design features include:
- raised continuous footpath to increase pedestrian safety, reduce traffic and ensure no net loss of parking
- turfed area
- timber seating
- sandstone edging along the garden beds
- a new community garden
- plants including Crepe Myrtle and Chinese Elm trees
- shrubs such as Grevillea, Thyme and Gentian Blue Sage.
The works to transform the space were competed between 27 February and 30 March 2023.
The community is encouraged to provide feedback on the design and functionality during the trial. Feedback closes 11.59pm, 30 June 2023.
