LOCATION Thebarton, SA
CLIENT City of West Torrens & JPE Design Studio
DESCRIPTION Streetscape Design
PROJECT PERIOD 2016-2020
PROJECT VALUE $1.6M +

Stage 1
MLEI was engaged by the City of West Torrens to rejuvenate and beautify industrial-zoned Holland Street by injecting life while protecting the gritty character unique to the precinct – by creating a plaza space at the end of the street where it met the River Torrens to promote cycle & pedestrian movement. The design team was led by JPE Studio, working collaboratively with the Council. MLEI’s role focussed on Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) with street trees, permeable pavement, and a feature rain garden, as well as a stormwater harvesting system below the plaza for reusing the stormwater for irrigation of the street trees.

Stage 2
MLEI was engaged by JPE Studio on Stage 2 of the project, to undertake road reconstruction design, kerb reconstruction, and consolidation of the roof drainage to Council’s existing stormwater drainage infrastructure.
