Project Number: 2004Date Drawn: May 2020

Site Analysis & Preliminary Concepts - FOR DISCUSSIONPIER STREET - ALTONA

L E G E N DEXISTING TREES - RETAINED

UPGRADED PAVING- Upgrade the paving to all pedestrian paths. A combination of dark and light paving. Dark paving is used along the high traffic areas as well as outside cafe’s and restaurant’s with lighter paving at proposed juctions and outside the reserve.

PEDESTRIAN JUNCTION - Proposed pedestrian raised pedestrian crossing junctions

OPEN LAWN SPACE- Proposed removal of scattered existing vegetation and creating a consolidated green open space

EXISTING CARPARK - The size and shape of existing carpark to remain the same. Possibility of resurfacing and linemarking as part of these works. Carpark to be possibly used as weekend Market place.Off street carkpark to remain the same with a possibility of adding a few trees and planting

RAIN GARDEN- Proposed raingardens along the edge of Pier street as part of WSUD

LOW MOUND- Low grass mounds 600-800mm high along the edge of the reserve to help negotiate the ocean winds thus creating calm areas within the reserve

SEATING - Proposed seating in form of seating walls and or fixed benches and seats along the street

SHARED PATH

SHELTERSHobsons Bay feature shelters with picnic furniture beneath and a seat wall running behind for additional seating opportunities in the shade.

ALTONA PIERThe alignment shown for the new pier is one being considered by Parks Victoria, with the pier in alignment with Pier St.

PROMENADEThe promenade would be a minimum of 4 metres width, broadening out to 10 metres where possible.

GRASS MOUNDSGrassed mound, sloping from the promenade outside the life saving tower to meet the seawall. The grass would finish below the seawall height and provide a seating edge over-looking the beach

TERRACESThe seawall broadens out to become a series of broad sitting and sunbathing terraces which can be stepped over to access the beach. The concrete terraces will have timber cladding for warmth and character.

RAISED INTERSECTION / PLAZARaised paved intersection to encourage easier pedestrian movement between Weaver Reserve, Logan Reserve, Altona Beach Shopping Village and the foreshore

Desired Outcome - Concept 1 - Precinct Plan




UPGRADED PAVING- Upgrade the paving to all pedestrian paths. A combination of dark and light paving. Dark paving is used along the high traffic areas as well as outside cafe’s and restaurant’s with lighter paving at proposed juctions and outside the reserve.

C O N C E P T 1The concept retains all the existing carparking facilities intact with minor updates. The paving along the footpath is proposed upgraded to match works undertaken by council along Pier Street. Additional tree planting is shown along the Esplanade along with creation of some pause points.

PEDESTRIAN JUNCTION - Proposed pedestrian raised pedestrian crossing junctions


EXISTING CARPARK - The size and shape of existing carpark to remain the same. Possibility of resurfacing and linemarking as part of these works. Carpark to be possibly used as weekend Market place.Off street carkpark to remain the same with a possibility of adding a few trees and planting

UPGRADED PAVING- Upgrade the paving to all pedestrian paths. Proposed widening of the footpaths by either removing offstreet carparking or reducing the carpark numbers. A combination of dark and light paving. Dark paving is used along the high traffic areas as well as outside cafe’s and restaurant’s with lighter paving at proposed juctions and outside the reserve.

PEDESTRIAN JUNCTION - Proposed raised pedestrian crossing junctions


UPGRADED CARPARK - The existing carpark to be reworked to include more carparking spaces. Valletta lane to be upgraded to allow for additional traffic to & from the carpark. (TRAFFIC ADVICE AT LATER STAGE)Carpark to be possibly used as weekend Market place.Existing off street carpark to be remodelled to allow for parallel parking and inclusion of treesCarpark Entry and Exit from Valletta Lane

RAIN GARDEN- Proposed raingardens along the edge of Pier street as part of WSUD (DRAINAGE ADVICE AT LATER STAGE)

SEATING - Proposed beaspoke seating along the upgraded and widened pedestrian paths along Pier street and Esplanade

C O N C E P T 2 Concept 2 takes one step up and looks at upgrading existing carparking facility thus freeing up some space along the street. This space is used to widen existing footpaths and add pause points and planting along the street.There is also a major upgrade from concept 1 in which portion of Esplanade is converted into a pedestrian plaza

C O N C E P T 3 Concept 3 is a much grander approach in which we look at creating a new carparking facility thus allowing for much wider footpaths. Additional beaspoke seating elements along Pier street and Pedestrian plaza (Esplanade). Possible addition of extra toilet facility is also considered in this option.
