- Work in Yarralumla, Deakin or Curtin,
- use the shops, schools, medical and other community facilities in these suburbs
- travel to and from work via Cotter Road, Dudley Street, Kent and Novar Streets, Adelaide Avenue and Yarra Glen.
A panel of experts and community representatives will discuss the new development and answer your questions:
Topics will include the impact on:
- the design and livability of the new development and on neighbouring communities, including local infrastructure, facilities and green open space
- the transport corridor from Weston Creek/Molonglo through to Yarralumla/West Deakin, Woden and Civic
- Canberra’s national capital and garden city values.
This meeting will inform ISCCC’s decision on how to respond to the Government’s consultation on and emerging public concern about this proposal.
