Humphrey Rivulet, Glenorchy : proposal for an open space system

PRINCIPLES The intention underlying this report is to explore ways of gaining improved benefits for the community from the physical environment'of the Hobart region, especially through use of elements of the natural landscape which form the setting of the urban area.

It does not necessarily follow that such plans are suited to Tasmanian conditions, but we believe there is much to learn from observation of practice elsewhere, together with a critical evaluation of local urban environments
