Frankston Principal Pedestrian Network
Frankston City Council and ASPECT Studios, in consultation with the local community, developed a plan to promote walking as a primary mode of transport between the city’s key destinations while and enhance exploration of Frankston’s central laneways. The route has been identified to strengthen and prioritise north - south pedestrian access to retail outlets including Bayside Shopping Centre, local traders and the Frankston Transit Interchange.
To enhance community safety and eliminate waste dumping and graffiti, Gallery Lane hosts a sequence of new lighting and art components. By incorporating Crime Prevention through Environmental Design principles, these works have enlivened the lane and support community activation and promote a safer pedestrian route.
