The ECU Mount Lawley Master Plan has now been finalised, following community consultation undertaken during the development of the project’s key design principles and the Draft Master Plan across 2024 and 2025.

The community feedback received during consultation was carefully reviewed and considered in finalising the Master Plan. While the overall vision remains unchanged, refinements were made to provide greater clarity and detail in key areas, including movement and access, built form and housing, the role of key community facilities and how the project will be delivered over time. See our updated Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on the right of this page, with further detail provided on the project website's FAQs.

Community feedback - key themes

Feedback raised a broad range of matters across the Master Plan’s strategies. The most common themes and sentiment for each of the six strategies are summarised in the graphic and text below:

• Honouring our Legacy: Importance of preserving the site’s educational, creative, and cultural history, and retaining key buildings.
• Shaping a connected community: Questions about the new school, childcare centre, and use of existing buildings.
• Safe movement: Questions about traffic impacts, parking, safe crossings, cycling routes and public transport connections.
• Creating inviting green spaces: Strong support for retaining mature trees and enhancing green open space.
• Spaces for living, learning and gathering: A desire for spaces for community use, arts, learning, and gathering.
• Building for the future: A range of views on housing density, building heights and affordable and social housing.
