Edithvale Shopping Village revitalisation project

• Project typeMajor project
• Project value$3.3 million
• Project scheduleCompleted

Edithvale Shopping Village has been revitalised to create a more welcoming, vibrant and accessible precinct that enhances the local shopping experience and supports our traders.

The revitalisation spans 11 blocks — from 280 Nepean Highway in the south to the intersection of Nepean Highway and Natal Avenue in the north.

The aim of the project was to create a cohesive, accessible and attractive precinct that provides a better experience for shoppers, traders and the wider community, while helping boost the local economy.

Community shaped design

To ensure the design reflects community needs, Council undertook detailed investigations into:

• Streetscape design (including new seating and street furniture)
• Stormwater drainage and flood mitigation
• Greening and landscaping
• Wayfinding signage
• Project planning and staging
• Connectivity with other local projects
• Accessibility and gender-responsive design
• Place-making and local character

Community input has played a key role in shaping the design. To see how your feedback helped guide the project, visit Your Kingston Your Say.

Speed limit change on Nepean Highway

The speed limit reduction to 40km/hr has been funded and implemented by Vic Roads, to complement the project.
