Advice
The Committee unanimously supported the recommendation.
Background
In early 2022, the City introduced a series of Sydney Summer
Streets events closing several high streets to support communities during the
pandemic. The initiative was an opportunity for local businesses to extend
their trade onto footpaths and outdoor settings. Following the success of the
Sydney Summer Streets events, the City now plans to hold similar Sydney Streets
events throughout the year to support communities and local businesses.
The City has applied for the temporary road closures of
Crown Street, Surry Hills and surrounding streets for the Sydney Streets 2024
on Saturday, 2 November 2024 from 8am to 11.30pm.
