Urana Street, The Rock - Nature Strip
Last modified: November 17, 2009 - 11:43 PM
Some time ago when Council was considering the beautification of the Urana Street upgrade consideration was given to the planting of turf on the nature strips however this has found not to be a long term solution for the beautification of the street. Grass in that environment does not survive unless it is watered throughout the hot months and given the emphasis on conserving water will result in the turfing being unacceptable. Council is proposing conducting a trial of mulching and planting nature strips with drought hardy ground cover and ornamental grasses. This summer season all nature strips on the southern side of Urana Street will be landscaped as well as the east side of Emily Street linking the mulched area at Emily Street with the main street. If the landscaping is successful the remainder of the nature strips will be completed in the next planting season.
