Better Suburbs - Places and Spaces - Ryans Road, Nundah

Brisbane City Council is working with the local community to revitalise the neighbourhood precinct at the corner of Ryans Road and Robinson Road, Nundah. This is part of the Better Suburbs – Places and Spaces (BSPS) public realm improvement program and Council’s commitment to creating a city of vibrant neighbourhoods.

Community engagement

The local community is encouraged to be involved in the project. During the project’s launch we invited the local community to share their ideas and local knowledge of the precinct at the corner of Ryans Road and Robinson Road and the wider neighbourhood precinct.

Project launch – community engagement summary

Throughout the three-week engagement period, between 20 November and 10 December 2023, community feedback was gathered during in-person and online engagement activities. Some key findings are summarised below:

• A place to gather –a place to connect, meet and socialise, and the potential for integration of active uses and consideration to day/night-time use.
• Street greening – increase tree canopy cover and shade within the precinct.
• Road safety focus – investigate solutions to reduce traffic speed and increase pedestrian safety.
• Lighting – increase lighting or deliver creative lighting to improve pedestrian safety within and through the site.
• Place identity – the acknowledgement and celebration of culture and local history.

Thank you for sharing your ideas and feedback during the project’s launch – your feedback will assist Council in understanding what the community values in their neighbourhood and will inform the concept design to be released in mid-2024.
