_LIFE IN THE GREEN LANE

It is interesting to see that the City of Melbourne has commenced works on the ‘Green your Laneway’ project, with a series of planter boxes being constructed recently in Coromandel Place to accommodate a range of plant species.  The project aims to improve the amenity of several laneways across the City by introducing climbers, shrubs, trees and providing inviting places for people to sit and relax.

In addition to Coromandel Place, Guildford Lane, Meyers Place and Katherine Place have been selected for the greening treatment, with Coromandel Place being the first.

Acknowledging that the recently installed vegetation will take a while to reach maturity, Collie looks forward to watching the greening progress in the selected laneways.
