Rejuvenating conservancy lanes to decongest Richards Park

Area / Length:

1705 m

Main access road:

Cookson Road, John Armstrong Road

Nominee

Skyline Elysee Residents Association

Budget

Priority Interventions

A few conservancy lanes, such as those along John Armstrong Road, can be developed to pilot a joggers' track, introduce children's play spaces, community gardens, and other social and recreational activities.

Site context

The site has 15 segments of conservancy lanes, totalling 1860m. The conservancy lanes are largely gated with overgrown weeds; a few are currently used by pedestrians to pass through and for vehicular parking.

Issues

Streets in the neighbourhood have become increasingly unsafe due to high-volume, fast-moving traffic throughout the day. Richards Park sees heavy crowding during peak hours, and there are no other play spaces for children and adults.
