Parklet Program
What is a Parklet?
Parklets are re-purposed parking bays which are designed to create spaces for pedestrian activity. Parklet setups could contain things like a platform with seating, greenery and bike parking facilities. Although parklets are maintained by hosts, they are public space for the community to enjoy.
There are 2 streams to the Moreland Parklet program, the short-term stream and the long-term stream.
Applications are now open for both the Short & Long-term Parklet streams!
Short-term stream
Short term installations run for 6 months. They run from July to January and then from January to July each year to ensure each site experiences both cool and warmer weather. The setup is made of Council owned parklet furniture which is hired out to give hosts an opportunity to try the idea before investing in the Long term stream.
