CBD Infrastructure Improvement Program |
|
In December 1998 the Bathurst Central Business District Beautification Scheme which was prepared by a Team of Council’s Planners and Engineers, with the assistance of a Heritage Advisor, was adopted by Bathurst Regional Council. |
|
|
The principal aim of the scheme is to compliment and add to the city’s heritage, history and beauty and to contribute to the efficient use of space and movement, to improve the streetscape qualities of the CBD for users and to enhance business opportunities for the benefit of the whole community.
