The Draft Master Plan is available to view and provide feedback
The ECU Mount Lawley Redevelopment Draft Master Plan outlines a high-level vision for transforming the former university campus into a connected, inclusive and sustainable urban neighbourhood. It sets the overall direction for future land uses, buildings, movement, and public spaces.
While detailed planning and design will be developed through later stages, this Draft Master Plan provides a visionary framework to guide long-term redevelopment.
The Draft Master Plan is underpinned by six key strategies, developed in response to community feedback, strategic drivers, technical investigations and the site's unique characteristics. These strategies build on the design principles co-developed with the Community Reference Group and shaped through broader community consultation in 2024.
Together, these engagement processes brought forward local perspectives for the redevelopment related to the site’s history, layout, public spaces, movement, activities and buildings. For further information on the outcomes of the community consultation, please refer to the Community Engagement Outcomes Report.
