Abercrombie Street Upgrade - Exhibition Oct 24-31 - Drop in Plan Feedback at Tripod 26 Oct 2011

Letter from Clover Moore Distributed to residents about Abercrombie Street

The City of Sydney plans to transform Abercrombie Street, Darlington, into a safe and inviting public area.

 We want to promote outdoor dining, strengthen the Darlington village atmosphere, and make it safer for people to walk to Redfern Station and Sydney University by:

 Making the street more pedestrian-friendly with a wider footpath on the southern side

• Greening the area with more trees and garden beds

• Installing new lighting

• Reducing the clutter of overhead cables.

 We are not proposing changes to existing traffic arrangements.

Come and join me at 5pm to discuss the proposals at our information session on Wednesday 26 October 2011 at Café Tripod, 262 Abercrombie Street.

The drop-in session will be open from 4pm - 7pm. We will provide coffee, tea, juice and light snacks.

Café Tripod is wheelchair accessible. If you need a hearing loop or a translator, you can contact Rob Mueck, Project Officer, on 9265 9333 or at rmueck@cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au.

If you have any questions about the information session or our proposal, you can also contact Rob.

The concept design will be on public exhibition from Monday 24 October until Monday 31 October 2011. You can also view and comment on it online at www.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au.

Yours sincerely

Clover Moore MP

Lord Mayor of Sydney
