YOUNG STREET PLAZA PROPOSAL:

Council is seeking community feedback on the design of a new plaza in Young Street (between Military Road and Grosvenor Lane).

The project is a response to community feedback emphasising a need for more community/open space in the Neutral Bay Village.

A concept has been developed that proposes new landscaped areas for community use, space for outdoor dining, and improved pedestrian access around Neutral Bay Village.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS:

− Closure of Young Street between Military Road and Grosvenor Lane (driveway and loading zone access will be retained)

− 700sq m of high quality landscaped space for community use

− Improved access for people walking and cycling to B-line bus stops, including new paths and secure bike parking

− Realignment of existing traffic signals over Military Road to provide a direct link between May Gibbs Place and Young Street

− Increased pedestrian activity in front of shops and commercial premises fronting Young Street

− Integration with planned pedestrian path and streetscape upgrades in nearby Grosvenor Lane

− Reduction of 11 car parking spaces, which will be offset by an increase of 5 spaces in Grosvenor Lane

− High quality paving and materials

− New street trees, garden beds and public seating

WALKING + CYCLING

Key Design Features:

− The majority of pedestrian access and circulation occurs under awnings, directly connecting to shop fronts.

− The creation of the plaza space will enable alternative routes for movement, with opportunities for pedestrians to better utilise the paved areas for seating.

− People walking and cycling will be able to directly connect to May Gibbs Place via signalised crossing (subject to RMS approval).

VEHICULAR ACCESS

Key Design Features:

− Vehicle access will be maintained to existing driveways. This will be clearly delineated through the location of plaza furniture and pavement types.

− The plaza allows for a timed loading zone and controlled service vehicle access.

PLAZA ACTIVATION

Key Design Features:

− Activation of the shop fronts will be supported with the opportunity for retail to utilise the outdoor space for small displays.

− The increase in pavement will enable outdoor dining to occur under the shade of existing mature trees or small shade umbrellas.

− Cafes and restaurants will be encouraged to activate the space, creating a relaxed outdoor ambience conveniently located close to a major shopping precinct.
