Street-side Dining

An 'adjustable' outdoor dining support initiative

As part of our place and city shaping work, the City of Hobart is working with a number of traders who have requested an expansion of their outdoor dining areas.

The Street-side Dining project also seeks to improve the accessibility of Hobart's streets by enabling continuous-line-of-travel on footpaths along the building line in the location of the participating hospitality traders.

What support is the City offering business owners?

The City is working on these new spaces with business, helping them be responsive and flexible to their changing outdoor dining space needs.

This includes offering a range of support at no cost during the trial, such as:

• equipment such as planters (and plantings), including delivery and installation, and removal, and watering of street-side plants
• traffic engineering and management support to ensure the proposal is safe.

Where are the street-side installations?

• Simple Cider (lower 189 Elizabeth Street)
• Straight-Up Coffee + Food (202a Liverpool Street)
• Pilgrim Coffee and Dumpling World (50 and 54 Liverpool Street)

How long is the trial?

These installations will be in place until the end of May 2023  subject to review and possible extension.
