The Southern Grampians Shire Council recently endorsed the 2020 Hamilton CBD Masterplan to inform the future strategic development of the Hamilton CBD. Urban designers Jensen PLUS were engaged to develop design improvements to some of Hamilton’s most important CBD streets and public spaces. The focus for the new concept designs was Melville Oval, Lonsdale Street and Gray Street, as well as other connecting streets and laneways. The designs explore options to improve walking and cycling, introduce more public art and signage, better public spaces and parking, and improved trees and landscaping.
