You are invited to comment on the concept designs for the Edward and Penshurst Street South streetscape improvement project.
This street corridor improvement project will help achieve Council’s Community Strategic Plan Our Future Willoughby 2032's vision to create a city that is green, connected, liveable and resilient.
It will encompass street greening, traffic calming improvements to make the corridor safer, cooler, and more inviting for pedestrians and cyclists. Up to now, we have conducted two workshops to hear ideas from the community and was supported by more than two thirds of respondents for this project.
In the beginning of 2024, Council engaged a design consultant to develop draft design options for the community. These concepts are now on the Have Your Say page to provide your feedback.
The Have Your Say period is from 22 July to 25 August, 2024. There are several opportunities for residents and businesses to provide feedback to Council.

1. A community workshop with key project staff will be held in the main hall at Willoughby Public School, Oakville Road, Willoughby on Wednesday 7 August, from 6:45pm to 8:15pm.

2. Council staff will also host an informal ‘drop in’ session at Sanders Park, Julian Street on Saturday 17 August from 10:30am to 1pm. No registration is required.
