Push for Mixed-Use Development at Doncaster Park and Ride

Manningham Council

We've provided a submission to the Urban Design and Landscape Plan (UDLP) for the Doncaster Park and Ride Upgrades, as part of the North East Link Project (NELP).

Our recommendations throughout the submission demonstrate our strong commitment to advocating for a mixed-use transit-oriented development due to the wide-ranging benefits to the community, environment, and local economy.

Our detailed submission focuses on key outcomes we're seeking, including:

  • multi-level car park with increased capacity
  • a mix of retail and commercial development
  • public open space areas
  • increased car parking spaces for bus commuters
  • improved access to retail for surrounding residents
  • improved public transport access
  • pedestrian connectivity to be maintained and improved
  • noise walls that meet the expectations of our community, and
  • robust future-proofing for our growing population and evolving community needs.

Our submission also provides a detailed assessment of the UDLP, focusing on key areas across:

  • traffic, car parking and access
  • urban design and architecture
  • open space and landscaping
  • amenity
  • cultural themes
  • as well as other considerations.

We lodged our submission in September 2024.
