Location
Junction West is a busy mixed-use urban environment including a major shopping centre, mid-rise residential, and higher-density developments along Camberwell Road. The recent addition of the outdoor dining parklets along Camberwell Road, and the Rivoli Cinema opposite, make the precinct more attractive to people at night.

What we aim to achieve
- Plan for private development of major sites to contribute positively to the public realm and surrounding precinct.
- Guide new development at higher densities to provide high quality homes and business spaces to accommodate the growing population and economy.
- Deliver new street connections and public spaces to create an attractive, permeable and accessible mixed use precinct.
- Manage sensitive interfaces, particularly to Harold Street low rise residential.
- Encourage private development to provide publicly accessible parking.
Future vision
Here's an example of a potential project to enhance Junction West - the green streets project, which reconfigures the area to make space use more efficient and people-friendly.
Green streets concept plan, which will include new public spaces, private development and car parking arrangements
