Dear white cat Thank you for your interest in the transformation of Albert Street. Council undertook some initial streetscape upgrade works in mid-2015 to Albert Street, between Charlotte and Mary Streets. These improvements have enabled this section of Albert Street to be transformed as a temporary events space which facilitates an ongoing program of occasional events and other activities. Improvements provided in this stage included: · bollards that can be used to temporarily close off the event space area to vehicle traffic · traffic closure signage to redirect traffic during event times · power outlets to support event activities · footpath build-outs to shorten the crossing distances between some of the key street crossings. With regard to the longer-term transformation of the remaining sections of Albert Street, it is anticipated that this will occur incrementally over time as properties redevelop and provide streetscape upgrades within and adjacent to their property.
