Horsham North Urban Design Framework Part 1, Part 2, Part 3

The Urban Design Framework was adopted by Council on 16 September, 2013.

The Framework provides a planning context for development within Horsham North and is intended to achieve the five objectives below. To implement the framework, Council will work co-operatively with residents, businesses, landowners and agencies in Horsham North. The objectives were identified through community consultation and link strongly with the aims of the Horsham North Action Plan. The framework itself is not the only solution to issues facing Horsham North, but is an important part of a range of programs intended to improve the area.

This framework is intended to enable:

• the enhancement of connections within and into Horsham North by improving pedestrian, cycle and public transport;
• the improvement of the physical relation of Horsham North to Horsham by improving conditions in the rail corridor and adjacent industrial land;
• the creation of a centre or 'heart' within Horsham North as a defined focus for the urban area;
• the improvement of perceived and actual safety within Horsham North;
• the creation of a new and improved perception of the area.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss the framework, please call Martin Bride, Community Facilitator on 03 5382 9759 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
