Crawley-Nedlands
Vision
Nestled in a sea of trees, Crawley-Nedlands’ foundations are built on community strength. Its friendly, neighbourhood vibe comes from the people who call it home – both residents, and students of the historic University of Western Australia. With a unique sense tranquillity and safety, it is also one of Perth’s most vibrant neighbourhoods.
Neighbourhood priorities
- Enhancing the neighbourhood’s character through streetscape improvements, greening and stronger connections to UWA, Kings Park, Swan River, parks and open spaces.
- Managing the interface and relationship between existing and future development, with a focus on character, amenity, transport and access.
- Improving cycle paths, parking and cross-overs.
- Exploring future community facility and infrastructure needs.
- Continue to work with neighbourhood groups, residents and stakeholders to support activation, events and business vitality.
