3.8.2 Overview
The Station Category* and the User Requirements Brief* will determine the extent and
detail requirements of landscape areas at a station. The station landscape must provide:
• A safe station precinct; e.g. well lit external spaces, accessible paths, good passive
surveillance
• Safe, clear connections between the station and the local community
• Rail corridor safety; e.g. prevent unauthorised access.
• Increase stability of cuttings and embankments
• Secured RailCorp assets e.g. prevent access to vulnerable assets, prevent
trespassing to adjacent properties and delineate property boundaries with fencing,
soft and hard landscaping.
