Sinclairtown Street Design Project

Last Updated: 4/9/2014

This is a novel partnership approach to the development of an active travel project. It takes on a practical aspect of exploring resident’s needs and actions with the concept that better quality places can be an important means of increasing active travel. This project worked with residents, the school community and council over an extended period to develop a set of design proposals that would encourage more active travel. This innovative project takes a holistic approach towards understanding how neighbourhoods can be better and safer places to travel through actively and better places to live, play and socialise on.
