BACKGROUND
This event will trial the preliminary concept for George St, as part of the Central City Plan, allowing us to experience what the block between St Andrew Street and Hanover Street will be like as a vibrant ‘shared space.’ It is the first of several events, trials and activities we’re planning for the area over the next three years to create a destination which people will want to keep coming back to, increase footfall and minimise disruption through the construction period.
