Street improvements for Koornang Road

Our Better Streets, Better Places program is about making our streets safer, more lively and easier to get around — for everyone.

Koornang Road has been identified as a high-priority street upgrade. At the heart of the Carnegie activity centre, it plays a vital role in supporting local jobs, hospitality, retail, and transport.

We’ve heard your feedback and are taking action to improve the street — including refreshing garden beds, increasing our urban tree canopy, upgrading footpaths, public seating and street furniture, and improving pedestrian safety.

We want to hear your ideas to inform our concept plan for Koornang Road — and get your feedback on some initial plans for improvements at two key pedestrian crossings.

Have your say before Sunday 6 July 2025.

How we're planning to improve the street

  • Refreshing garden beds and landscaping.

  • Increasing the urban forest with more street tree plantings.

  • Upgrading footpaths, seating and street furniture.

More visible signage re the ‘no smoking zone’ so people can actually see it & hopefully adhere. Make Koornang Road a 30km speed limit zone & safer for pedestrians or a mall with no cars would be even better.
