Rosalie Village Precinct Project

Brisbane City Council is working with the local community to revitalise the Rosalie Village neighbourhood shopping precinct. This is part of the Village Precinct Projects program (VPP) and Council’s commitment to create a city of vibrant neighbourhoods.

We’re committing up to $1m to the improvement project, which aims to:

  • enhance the amenity, connections and safety for residents and visitors to the centre
  • increase the community’s sense of place and pride in this neighbourhood centre.

Community consultation and engagement

The local community is encouraged to become involved in the planning for the improvement proposal by providing feedback about the Rosalie Village precinct and public space opportunities.

The community provided feedback and ideas in the first phase of consultation through the onsite information kiosk and online survey, in September 2022. Key areas for improvement the community highlighted include:

  • improved traffic safety and pedestrian access
  • more amenity including landscaping and street furniture
  • better parking conditions
  • creative placemaking opportunities.

In response to the community's ideas, feedback and site investigations, Council prepared an opportunities proposal. We invited your feedback on the proposal through an on site community information kiosk, an online survey and business owner information session. The survey closed Sunday 19 February 2023.

Thank you for sharing your feedback which, along with further site investigation, will help inform the final improvement plan for the Rosalie Village Precinct Project.

Improvement opportunities

The Rosalie Village VPP opportunities proposal includes:

  • upgrading sections of footpath to exposed aggregate concrete to improve accessibility, connectivity and amenity
  • a new pedestrian crossing at Baroona Road, near Nash Street, to improve safety and accessibility (this will require a loss of up to five current parking bays)
  • new garden beds and additional street trees to improve visual and physical amenity
  • installing new unique seating and standard Council street furniture ​
  • improved speed signage at key entry locations of the precinct
  • investigating creative placemaking opportunities to enhance amenity and centre identity.

Our investigation into the precinct's kerbside parking allocation has indicated that no additional parking spaces are available.

The proposed opportunities are subject to community feedback and further site investigations.

Flood mitigation and drainage works

Due to the complexity of the Rosalie Village area, infrastructure solutions required to mitigate flooding and flood and drainage works are not part of the Rosalie Village Precinct Project scope of works.

However, any proposed Rosalie Village Precinct Project works will be undertaken in consultation with a required Registered Professional Engineers of Queensland (RPEQ) hydrology investigation.
