Fairway Street Shopping Strip in Frankston North has received an upgrade, and the nearby Kareela Road shopping area is next in line!

The upgrades are part of Council’s Local Shopping Strip Action Plan, which guides the development of the public streetscapes around Frankston City’s local shopping strips. The projects are designed to make areas more aesthetically pleasing, accessible and pedestrian friendly, which also helps to support local economic development.

At Fairway Street, the upgrade included:

  • Footpath resurfacing
  • Improved parking conditions
  • New seats and benches
  • Tree and garden bed planting
  • Provision for future outdoor dining opportunities

The works complement other recent local area improvements including the new play space and community centre upgrades in Orwil Street.

Upgrade works at Kareela Road Shops are now underway. https://www.frankston.vic.gov.au/Planning-and-Building/Major-City-Projects/More-current-projects/Kareela-Road-Shopping-Strip-Upgrade
