Council to enhance public domains and celebrate heritage with Place Design Group

As part of the Western Parkland City Liveability Program, Hawkesbury City Council has engaged Place Design Group to deliver the detailed design for revitalising the town centres of Richmond, South Windsor and Windsor.

Place Design Group’s design component of the Liveability Project will bring the Masterplan vision to fruition. The design will celebrate existing heritage and enhance public places through public domain upgrades, activation initiatives and place-making, with the aim to re-energize the charm of the Hawkesbury region.

The Design Phase of the Hawkesbury City Council’s Master Plan and Public Domain Plan ‘Revitalising Our Town Centres of Richmond, South Windsor and Windsor’ has specific aims for the town centres of Richmond, South Windsor and Windsor:

Richmond – to be an Activated Cultural Destination

South Windsor – to be an Updated Contemporary Town Centre

Windsor – to focus on River Heritage, Civic Boulevards and Vibrant People Places.

Once the detailed design is completed, it will be placed on Council’s community engagement website, Your Hawkesbury Your Say at www.yourhawkesbury-yoursay.com.au
