Roseville Public Domain Plan

The Draft Plan describes the vision to revitalise the public domain areas of central Roseville. It will also provide public domain guidance as the centre evolves through growth, multimodal transport facilities and redevelopment

The key principles of the of the draft Roseville PDP include:

• Retain and enhance the character of the main street shops on Pacific Highway and Hill Street.
• Respect and enhance the public domain including Heritage Conservation Areas and heritage items.
• Improve pedestrian and cyclist safety, connectivity, and movement within the centre.
• Activate laneways away from Pacific Highway as alternate pedestrian routes and potential locations for shopping and dining.
• Improve Roseville Memorial Park for everyday use as well as war memorial services.
• Enhance and extend floral displays throughout the centre, building on the character of railway gardens.
• Seek opportunities for new urban parks, spaces and places for local events.
• Improve the amenity of Hill Street by providing potential outdoor dining opportunities, widened footpaths, reduced traffic speeds, and street trees.
• Increase tree canopy cover in the Local Centre.

Like the recently adopted Turramurra, Gordon and Lindfield Public Domain Plans, the Roseville Public Domain Plan will ensure a coherent, well-coordinated rollout of the concept design and desired future character for Roseville.

Following the public exhibition, comments will be reviewed and assessed to determine whether changes to the public domain plan are required. The results of the public exhibition and the final draft will be reported back to Council for adoption. 

Construction work relating to the Plan will be caried out over the next few years, likely commencing with improvement to Roseville Memorial Park in 2024, and Hill Street in 2025.

Note that this PDP is a high level plan. A wide ranging process of community consultation (which will include on site information events, surveys, written submissions etc) will be undertaken when more detailed plans and designs are being developed for specific elements of the plan. This will occur as budget becomes available and will be widely publicised. Ensure you stay informed by subscribing the Ku-ring-gai Yoursay e-newsletter. Also note that the Roseville PDP should be read in conjunction with the Ku-ring-gai Public Domain Plan Vol.1 (Guidelines) and Vol.3 (Technical Manual) which have been adopted by Council and can be found here.
