Edward Street, Brisbane, Australia Project Specifi cation An upgrade project started in September 2016 to transform this area of the Central Business District into a world-class retail environment with open footpaths and a tree-lined boulevard. Kauri Pines were planted in areas with buried services and the City Project Offi ce did not want to restrict pedestrian access by using wooden stakes or above ground guy wires to support the transplanted trees.
