Share your ideas for Green Street’s future

Healesville residents and visitors are invited to share their thoughts and ideas for a re-design of Green Street, to make the area more pedestrian friendly.

The re-design, which is open for consultation until 22 October, features a number of proposals for the area between the Green Street/Maroondah Highway intersection and Taber Lane.

Options include:

Creating a pedestrian plaza on the western side of Green Street and having two-way traffic flow through the current north-bound lane (towards Healesville Primary School) Creating a pedestrian plaza on the western side of Green Street and having one-way traffic flow through the north-bound lane Creating a pedestrian plaza on the western side of Green Street and having one-way traffic entering from the Maroondah Highway Retaining the existing conditions with separated lanes around the public toilets

Ryrie Ward Councillor, Fiona McAllister, encouraged residents to fill out the survey and share any ideas they had on improving Green Street.

“So many of our residents and visitors travel Green Street each day – whether they’re walking to Coronation Park, visiting a café or shop or heading to the Healesville Market at the River Street carpark,” Cr McAllister said.

“This is an important public space for the town, so we need to get it right.

“All the contributions we get through our survey will help us decide on the best options for the community, and we’ll take the suggestions into any design that follows.”
