In June 2022, the Council resolved to convert Rosemont Lane—previously a private laneway—into a public road.
Upon taking ownership of the laneway, the Council began design works to address flooding during rain events and to upgrade the laneway to Council standards. The project also focuses on preserving the ongoing health of significant trees located along the laneway boundary.
The laneway reconstruction will include:
- underground water storage and a pump station
- installation of a rising main and new power supply for the pump station
- permeable paving adjacent to significant trees
- concrete kerbing and new asphalt surfacing
- new pedestrian footpath and driveway crossover
- new drainage outlets in Rosemont Street.
These improvements aim to improve stormwater management, provide safer access and ensure the long-term sustainability of the area.
The project is jointly funded by Council’s Capital Works Program and the Federal Government’s Roads to Recovery Program.
