Council’s Main Streets Program aims to improve the vibrancy and safety of selected laneways and local streets. Improving the character of laneways and local streets make them more inviting for the community as well as reducing crime and improving safety. Re-imagining the use of laneways and regenerating them can enhance the lives of the community and assist economic growth by providing a setting to attract visitation and local spend, that offers a place to go to, not move through. Caves Lane is part of the Main Streets Program and Council has developed a concept plan for this Lane.

The following improvements are proposed to make this laneway more welcoming and enhance connectivity:

• New public art
• New landscaping
• Possible new lighting
• New paving
• A shared zones maintaining existing access to driveways
• New outdoor dining opportunities for adjacent business
• New waste collection point in the car park
