Community Neighbourhood

The new residential garden neighbourhood has been planned to integrate with the surrounding communities and take advantage of the natural features of the Site.

An open, accessible system of streets and open spaces will provide free access to the Site and create small residential precincts, focussed around local parks. Extensive landscape treatment will contribute to the distinctive garden character of the neighbourhood.

Housing in the community neighbourhood will be fully integrated into a generous public domain comprising wide, tree-lined streets, safe pedestrian and cycle movement and parks providing a variety of recreational settings.

Detailed built form controls have been prepared for the Site to ensure that residential development achieves high standards of design and provides maximum community amenity.
