Parramatta. Laneways plan wins an award

Plans to rejuvenate Parramatta’s laneways and other small spaces have received accolades from the country's peak planning body. The urban design principles proposed in “The Parramatta Small Spaces and Laneways” initiative recently won an Urban Design Award, at the Planning Institute of Australia’s New South Wales Awards for Excellence. Parramatta City Council appointed urban designers AECOM (formerly EDAW), in 2006, to develop plans aimed at breathing new life into the city’s laneways. Lord Mayor, Paul Garrard, said the concepts would be incorporated in more detail in council’s Lanes Framework Policy 2009.
