Sydney Road

THE FUTURE OF SYDNEY ROAD

What should we prioritise?

Sydney Road is the core of the Brunswick community – the shops, the history, the restaurants and bars.

Through-traffic does not add vibrancy. A parked car does not add value. People create Sydney Road.

We currently prioritise parked cars and through traffic over space for people.

Let’s change this and make Sydney Road Melbourne’s most vibrant shopping strip.

Streets People Love
Local councils are an important part of the decision making for our streets. Streets People Love is a campaign supporting and promoting the efforts of local government to create safe and pleasant streets for people to live, work, play and move in.

These streets have wide footpaths, trees, traffic calming, safe routes for people on bicycles, scooters and other mobility devices and 30 km/h zones. They enable all residents to be a part of their local community, to allow their kids to walk or ride to school, to access local services and safely get to where they need to go.

Revitalise Sydney Road supports this campaign. Visit their site to find out your local candidates that support this vision.
front cover of Vic Roads study
In 2019 Vic Roads conducted a study into how people travel, and want to travel, on Sydney Road. They found that most people want Sydney Road to be safer for everyone. The report was not released, but Revitalise Sydney Road acquired it under the Freedom of Information Act.
There is wide acceptance for an improved Sydney Road.
