This is our opportunity to make Waverley Park streets even better
We need your help to make our streets more pleasant for everyone to use, resolve the through-traffic problem and to help make our wee community the best it can be.
By the community, for the community. Tell us what needs to be done.
In response to demand from many residents, the Liveable Streets project seeks to design our streets to allow community priorities to flourish.
