Local Area Mobility Plan - West Hobart
The City of Hobart is producing a Local Area Mobility Plan for West Hobart and parts of Mount Stuart. The Plan aims to create safe and vibrant streets for everyone to enjoy.
We want to hear from you about how to make moving around the neighbourhood easy for all ages and abilities.
What is a Local Area Mobility Plan?
Local Area Mobility Plans identify a network of connected, safe and convenient walking and cycling routes to and from common destinations within a neighbourhood. These destinations include schools, shopping precincts, major parks and recreation areas, and frequent bus stops.
The focus of the Local Area Mobility Plan will be different for each neighbourhood, to meet the unique community needs and future transport network requirements.
The Plans will identify projects and initiatives to be included within capital works planning and delivery over the next 10 years.
They make suggestions for the types of investment that could better support walking and cycling in these streets such as:
- wider footpaths
- kerb ramps
- safer pedestrian crossings
- traffic calming measures
- street trees and seating
- bike lanes and connected cycleways
- on-street parking changes
The actions identified in the plans will require further planning, community consultation and detailed design before they can be implemented.
