BNE Local and Liveable – Stones Corner

The Stones Corner project is one of three projects in the second year of the BNE Local and Liveable program. After an initial eight-week installation period, community feedback and a site evaluation will help to determine what happens with the project elements and site transition.

To identify potential activation ideas and help shape the development of an initial site plan, Council undertakes a site assessment to understand opportunities and constraints. BNE Local and Liveable year two projects will test new in place engagement activities with local residents, community groups and businesses.

About the project area

The project area will focus on connection and activation of routes in the Stones Corner precinct between:

  • Hanlon Park / Bur'uda and the Stones Corner Library
  • Hanlon Park / Bur'uda and the Logan Road shops.

The goal for the BNE Local and Liveable Stones Corner project is to demonstrate the design values as laid out in Council’s Design-led City Strategy, including creating connection between Hanlon Park / Bur'uda and local destinations, greening, and activating underused space.
