We’re making Bay Street, Brighton a more welcoming place to shop, dine, meet and spend time, day and night.
We’d love to hear what you think. View the concept and tell us what you like, what could work better and which improvements matter most to you.
Picture more greenery and garden areas, inviting places to sit and catch up, and better street and feature lighting that brings Bay Street to life after dark.
The proposed $1 million streetscape refresh include enhances social spaces, more bike parking, new street furniture such as seats and bins, and better protection and lighting for the Golden Elms. We’re also investing $500,000 to upgrade the Marion Street public toilet.
Local ideas, including feedback from traders, have helped shape the plans for this much-loved shopping street. Your feedback will help fine-tune priorities and design details.
Have your say online or come and chat with the project team at Bay Street drop-in sessions on:
- Wednesday 25 November, 5-7 pm, outside Coles, or
- Saturday 28 November, 10am-1pm, outside the Post Office.
Consultation closes 29 November 2026, so we can start building from mid-2027.
