London Circuit
London Circuit should serve as a gateway, providing a transition between the boulevard character of the avenues and the urban scale of the inner City Hill Precinct. The transition should be achieved through the use of urban design and traffic engineering treatments that serve to physically and psychologically divert traffic from the avenues onto London Circuit, thereby limiting access to the inner City Hill Precinct to predominantly local traffic. London Circuit should operate as the main public transport circuit for Canberra Central.
Buildings must be set back from London Circuit a sufficient distance to establish a tree‑lined boulevard character (two rows of trees and wide pavements).
New buildings fronting London Circuit must have active frontages.
