Role
Civil and stormwater engineer
Streetscape improvements and laneway revitalisation is an ongoing area of Woolacotts community infrastructure team.
Many existing areas are in poor condition or are unappealing, creating spaces that are not welcoming. Upgrading and revitalising these spaces provide areas that encourage usage and are aesthetically pleasing to local residents, businesses and visitors. This involves a combination of measures, including removal or relocation of kerbs, creation of shared zones, new paving, new seating and new lighting.
Our projects
Woolacotts has completed numerous cycleway projects, including:
- Crown and Baptist Street public domain improvement works

- Market Row laneway revitalisation
- Hosking Place and Penfold Lane revitalisation

- King Street Rockdale streetscape improvement
Our role
As part of our works, we were responsible for determining new pavement levels, which provided access into adjacent buildings, met disabled access requirements and maintained stormwater drainage paths without inundation into adjacent buildings.
In most instances this required detailed analysis and close liaison with the landscape architect to ensure the works met all these requirements.
