In October 2022, the Shire of Boddington initiated a Town Centre Revitalisation project and appointed Emerge Associates as the primary consultant to bring it to fruition. The first phase is to engage the wider community on concepts, and to hear from business owners in relation to future aspirations.
Project Extent:
The boundaries of the project are contained along Bannister Road, from the Northern entry past Hill Street and Southern entry by Farmers Reserve and include Wuraming Avenue, a section of Johnstone Avenue between Wuraming Avenue and Pollard Street and a section of Pollard Street between Johnstone Street and Bannister Road.
The area is broken up into 3 levels of design intensity:
1. High level (orange). Total of 700m - high focus area, quality durable finishes, high standard aesthetics, promotes interest and encourages longer stays.
2. Medium (blue). Total of 70m – important connecting node, and should provide some of the key elements of the high level design areas, but provide a natural progression into and out of the high and low zones.
3. Low (green) Total of 470m – minor aesthetic amendments, continuation of some themes or elements that indicate to the user that the area is within an important component of the Boddington Town Centre.
