The modernisation of John Street is spreading, with the recent unveiling in keeping with its transformation as a destination for retail, dining, recreation and leisure.

The $7 million project encompasses John Street from the Ryan Avenue intersection north to Campbell Street to the New England Highway, to enhance the gateways to the town centre as well as improve traffic flow and pedestrian connectivity.

Key inclusions include tree plantings on John and Campbell streets; new street lighting; undergrounding of power; Baileys Union Park upgrades; improved pedestrian connectivity at the John and Campbell streets' intersection; and potential for heritage treatment in Pearces Park.

Kerb lines and speed limits would remain unchanged.

Singleton Council's director planning and infrastructure services Mark Ihlein said the design aimed to reinforce major landscape, urban design and visual values of the town, as well as provide a cohesive connection through the entire promenade.

Residents can view the draft design on council's website or at the Administration Centre until December 11; or discuss the plan with staff at an information drop-in session at Riverside Park on Wednesday, November 27, from 8am until noon.

"The stage 2 upgrade sees the extension of the street beautification that has already occurred further along John Street and Ryan Avenue, and will also include improvements to the Campbell Street intersection as well as traffic and parking management, landscaping, street lighting, underground power, footpath improvements and upgrades to Baileys Union Park," Mr Ihlein said.

"The intention is to improve traffic flow, promote road and pedestrian safety and bring people to this end of town, providing easy access to facilities such as Riverside Park.

"But, of course, we're very keen to hear feedback from the community about what they think."

Mr Ihlein said improvements to address the safety of school buses at the intersection of John and Elizabeth streets, while part of the brief for the stage 2 upgrade, was the subject of separate consultation.

"Discussions have already occurred with a number of stakeholders, including businesses, local bus companies and schools about a potential one-way traffic option for Hunter Street, and council is working through 124 responses to a survey of residents and parents," he added.

The Singleton Town Centre Upgrade - Stage 2 project is funded in partnership between Singleton Council and the RestartNSW Resources for Regions program.

Submissions about the Town Centre Upgrade - Stage 2 landscape design may be made in writing and addressed to the General Manager, Singleton Council via post to PO Box 314 Singleton NSW 2330 or via email to council@singleton.nsw.gov.au by December 11.
