Design and Construction Standards

The Design and Construction Standards are a tool to support all people involved in the planning, design, review, approval, delivery and handover of public realm spaces and infrastructure. This supports the consistent implementation of materials, furniture, signage, lighting, planting and utilities across the city’s public realm infrastructure and provides clarity on requirements for all users. 

The standards are now available and can be accessed by the link below. 

These Standards must be read in conjunction with our detailed Engineering Standard Drawings which contain all the dimensions and details you will need to actually construct or reinstate an asset.

Note: The Docklands Design and Construction Standards will become obsolete when relevant contracts run their course, at which point the Design and Construction Standards will apply everywhere.
