Proposed naming of laneway in Bulleen
We're naming the unnamed laneway between Robert and Helene Streets in Bulleen. The new laneway will address two new properties created from the subdivision of land at 48 Templestowe Road in Bulleen.
We recently held a public consultation on the proposal to name the laneway ‘Kiln Lane’ in recognition of the area’s brickmaking past. The former Bulleen Brickworks was located nearby on Templestowe Road, which contained two large kilns and chimneys.
After receiving valuable community feedback during the consultation, we've decided not to proceed with the name Kiln Lane. This, in part, was due to some concerns raised regarding the difficulty in spelling and correctly hearing the word Kiln, particularly over the phone.
We are now proposing a new name for the laneway, 'Brickmakers Lane'. This name was suggested by the community during the public consultation process and maintains ties to the area’s brickmaking past. 'Brickmakers Lane' complies with Victoria's naming rules for places.
