Dunedin’s reputation for providing a unique student experience has been enhanced with the design of the city’s tertiary landscape. The Dunedin Tertiary Streets project, a partnership between Dunedin City Council, University of Otago and Otago Polytechnic, and Flow Transportation Specialists, aimed to revitalise the city’s tertiary precinct area.
The design needed to build community capacity and identity, improve the quality and provision of open space, and enhance the streetscape for public use, as well as accommodate vehicular traffic.
Chow:Hill’s proposed strategy and improvement options were developed around a shared understanding that tertiary environments are distinctive entities within urban environments. The design creates spaces that encourage student engagement, social interaction, expression and exchange.
