Roads to Parks - Budd Street, Collingwood

We're exploring opportunities for a new green open space on Budd Street, Collingwood

Yarra City Council through its Open Space Strategy (YOSS) is committed to providing new open space for existing and future residents, workers and visitors to Yarra. Currently only 0.3% of this suburb is made up of open space and that’s why it is a high priority area to create more to cater for future population growth.

We are exploring opportunities to create a new open space for the local community at Budd Street, Collingwood. To make this possible, we’re considering transforming a small section of Budd St (between Easey and Sackville Street) into a more welcoming, people-friendly space. This would involve closing it to through traffic and removing a few car parking spots.

Council is currently investigating what a new open space in this location could look like and want to hear from local residents to understand their ideas and whether they would be supportive.

If Council does decide to proceed with the project, there would be further engagement with the community that would include the following:   

  • A public notice for a road discontinuance   

  • Community consultation on a concept design for the new space   

    This survey is open from Monday 1 September to 5pm on Monday 22 September 2025.
