The Pitt Street cycleway project provided an opportunity for Tract to assist City of Sydney Council to reclaim road space for pedestrian and cyclist amenity.
The project represents a formalisation of the existing temporary separated cycleway, which was initiated during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Tract’s design provides a high-quality bi-directional cycleway stretching from the Pitt Street Mall to Dalley Street, and eventually to Alfred Street and Circular Quay.
A central aim of the project was to create an additional pedestrian zone between the cycleway and the existing footpath, which will allow for informal access and recreation, as well as accommodate outdoor dining.
Tract’s scope included design and coordination of the entire cycleway and associated pedestrian space, and specification high-quality finishes including Bluestone kerbing throughout, as well as other streetscape amenities including planting and furniture.
