b"SYDNEY - BOSTON - FUKUOKA 2018 - 2019OutcomesIMPROVE ACCESSIBILITY, CONNECTIVITY AND WAYFINDINGImproving wayfinding will help to connect Circular Quay to King Street Wharf through Walsh Bay and encourage more people to walk the route. The key east-west connections (Argyle Street) between the city and the harbour will be improved including amenity and legibility.SUPPORT WALSH BAY CULTURAL PRECINCT AND ENHANCE CULTURAL RIBBON CONNECTIONSImproving connections between The Rocks, Walsh Bay and Barangaroo by providing wayfinding and improving public transport is critical to supporting cultural life and the many bars, cafes and restaurants that have been established in the Walsh Bay Precinct.CREATE A NETWORK OF LINKED PARKS AND OPEN SPACES TO PROMOTE ACTIVE TRANSPORTImproving connections, such as between Argyle Street and Barangaroo Headland Park creates a strong green network between new and existing spaces, while upgrading the landscaping along Hickson Road promotes the use of cycling and walking.This research by design proposal draws together the fragmented developments and policy that exists along the Sydney Harbour Foreshore and identifies the value of Walsh Bay and how to integrate this heritage area into the rest of the city. Through introducing a well-connected light rail line, improved wayfinding and connections and injecting urban vitality with an arts overlay, the Walsh Bay Wharves precinct can emerge as a new contemporary arts destination that is a vibrant and inviting art and cultural hub.Section A-A'158158Section B-B'Master of Urban Development & Design 2018-2019yang research new0131 8pt.indd 9 26/11/2019 5:01:24 PM"
