North Hobart Neighbourhood Plan

The City of Hobart is preparing the North Hobart Neighbourhood (Structure) Plan. This plan will guide the sustainable development of the area.

The North Hobart Neighbourhood Plan is a 20-year plan that will guide the future growth of North Hobart. This includes exploring how we protect the essence of North Hobart and enhance the area's key features.

In particular, the Plan will:

  • Consider the best locations for new housing developments (infill and medium density)
  • Explore the best locations for new parks
  • Consider improvements to active transport routes
  • Identify opportunities for complimentary business and employment in the area

A Discussion Paper, which can be found in the documents section, has been prepared, this has been informed by the North Hobart Place Vision and Access & Parking Plan projects undertaken in 2020-2021. More information on this project can be found here.

Hill PDA prepared an Economic Analysis to forecast the demand for employment space within the study area, this can be found in the documents section.

The State Government’s 30-Year Greater Hobart Plan acknowledges past and projected population growth and identifies targets for new housing to meet the needs of current and future residents, this can be found in the documents section.
