The City of Melville has received funding from the Department of Transport to create a series of safe active streets linking Garden City Shopping Centre and Riseley Street Activity Centre.
Safe active streets are local streets with few cars, travelling at low speeds that prioritise bicycling and enhance conditions for walking. They are an important, new part of Perth’s transport network offering safe and comfortable routes for people riding bikes.
For more information, including a concept design, a fly-through video showing what the streets may look like visually as well as detailed information on the various features of the proposed safe active streets, visit Melville Talks.
