NEW York City has The High Line, but Melbourne may soon have…the Greenline?

Cruisers may be greeted by a very different Melbourne the next time they dock in the Victorian capital, with the city revealing plans for its Greenline project, which aims to transform the north bank of the Yarra River into a vibrant promenade.

The four-kilometre project will deliver an uninterrupted journey from Birrarung Marr to the Bolte Bridge, with the result to be a premier destination for tourists.

The Greenline will see Flinders Walk improvements, resulting in better access from Swanston Street to the river; upgrades to the Banana Alley vaults and the Yarro Yarro precinct, with more opportunities for river-based activities; creating a continuous riverside link to Docklands, and a new park at the end of the Salt Water Wharf precinct, as well as an improvement of the Australian Wharf experience.
