Leon Road (Roberts Street to Alexander Road) - Proposed Design - Footpath Construction

The City is proposing to construct a 1.5m wide footpath along Leon Road between Roberts Street and Alexander Road. Resident feedback and comments on the proposal is now sought.

The construction of this section of footpath completes the footpath network for Leon Road which will safety allow pedestrians to access Genesta Park and the shops along Waratah Avenue.

Investigations on the location of the footpath has resulted in the design continuing the alignment from the existing footpath in Leon Road which aligns with the property boundaries and considers the development of resident’s verges and the street trees. An alternative design would have been on kerbside however this has been eliminated due to the cost and the requirement to relocate the street lights.

Please view the proposed design (including location) in the document library and complete the online submission.

The Design Engineer for this project is Irene Chiang and she can be contacted on (08) 9273 3500, or email council@nedlands.wa.gov.au.
