Safety and greening are the hall marks of a newly improved street re-alignment in Robinson and Mason Streets in Dandenong. Completed on schedule with minimal impacts to business, the project is part of a longer-term vision for better connectivity on Robinson Street from Princes Highway to Walker Street.
The completed works included:
- Relocating the bus stop
- Adding valuable turfed green space
- Six new trees planted
- New raised platforms to enhance pedestrian safety at Hutton Street to destinations including Centrelink
- Plus, more intuitive traffic circulation along Mason Street
The project is expected to reduce the number of recorded traffic accidents in the area and improve connectivity to Little India and the Dandenong Station. Contractors Blue Peak Constructions carefully managed road detours and maintained pedestrian access through the eight-week project.
Future investment will also see the green space enhanced with additional low ground level plantings and trees.
