Stage 1 - Completed

Strathfield Council is proposing to install new planter boxes along sections of Liverpool Road and Homebush Road as part of public domain improvement works to Strathfield South Town Centre.

A number of planter boxes are proposed to be installed. The new planter boxes will be placed in areas which do not conflict with existing infrastructure such as waste enclosures, seating, fencing, and utilities. The three (3) existing benches within the town centre are also proposed to be revitalised through treatment of the wooden battens. Planter boxes are proposed to be placed adjacent to these existing benches, as well as in other areas to improve the look and feel of the centre.

The proposed locations of the planter boxes can be viewed online through Strathfield Council’s ‘Have Your Say’ page. You may also provide feedback on this webpage relating to the proposed placement of the planter boxes.

Submissions regarding work outside of the proposed scope of works (anything not related to the placement of planter boxes) will be discussed by Council for future consideration.

Stage 2 - Open for feedback until 20April 2025

Last year, Council installed new planter boxes in Strathfield South as part of an ongoing effort to improve the public domain in the town centre. This year, Stage 2 of the improvements will see new benches installed, new pot plantings, and additional vegetation and small trees. Stage 2 of the public domain improvements aim to provide a fresh look to the centre through the use of colourful street furniture and lush planting.

The turf verge which runs along Liverpool Road adjacent to lot number 235 is proposed to be removed and planted with lush shrubbery to improve the look of this edge condition to the road. Alongside the new planter pots, new street seats are proposed to be placed between the planter boxes which were installed as part of the Stage 1 works.

This will create small green pockets for people to sit and improve the comfort offering for the community when visiting the centre. These proposed improvements are a step towards improving the visual aesthetics of Strathfield South Town Centre. Have your say up until 20 April 2025.
