  Greenway plantings have been completed on the corner of Smyth Road and Verdun Street, Nedlands. This project, funded in the 2015/16 Annual Budget, provides an extension to the Greenway along Smyth Road, between Aberdare Road and Verdun Street.

  Plant selection was based on the existing Smyth Road theme, to create both an aesthetic and uniform appearance. The landscaping was enhanced with some garden edging and the application of mulch.

  The consultation level was limited and inconclusive, with 4 in support, 3 against and 1 neutral. consultation responses included concerns over where workers would park, and confirmation of commuter use of the parking bays.

  Given the mixed response, administration did not provide a strong view, but recommended a limited application of the parking restrictions to 6 bays, leaving 2 bays available for all-day parking. This would discourage commuter use, whilst still leaving options for workers by encouraging turnover of parking bays.

  Council subsequently approved this approach for implementation at the Council meeting on 23 February 2016.

  
  

• Bulimba Road - Parking Restrictions

  CLOSED: This discussion has concluded.
  

  The results of the community consultation indicated support for the three hour parking restriction from 8am – 5pm (east end corner), Monday to Friday and ‘No Parking’ from 8am – 5pm (west end corner), Monday to Friday.

  These restrictions were subsequently approved for implementation at the Council Meeting on 22 March 2016.

  Results to support this are indicated in the table below.

  	Number	Percentage
  Feedback that was in support of the parking restriction	11	79%
  Feedback that opposed the parking restriction	3	21%

  Providing there parking restrictions will increase the functionality of the parking. This will create a turnover of bays so that a greater number of users can access them. This will provide a better amenity for residents in the area who are largely affected by long term parking.
