STREETSCAPES

Maw Civil creates attractive, resilient streetscapes that lift the character and usability of urban and suburban public spaces. We blend landscape design, robust pavement work, and high-quality street furniture to deliver environments that are safe, accessible and welcoming for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers alike.

Our streetscape approach

  • Context-led design: We tailor layouts, materials and planting to the local character, land use and community needs.
  • Function-first planning: Every element is selected to improve circulation, accessibility and safety while supporting everyday use and events.
  • Durable construction: We use proven construction methods and premium materials to minimise maintenance and extend asset life.
  • Sustainability focus: Water-wise planting, permeable paving options, recycled-content materials and low-energy lighting reduce lifecycle impacts.

Services we provide

  • Landscaping and planting: Street trees, planting beds, bioswales, and median landscaping that provide shade, biodiversity and stormwater management.
  • Pavement construction and surfacing: Footpaths, shared paths, kerbing, kerb ramps, driveways and decorative paving with clear attention to slip resistance, drainage and long-term performance.
  • Street furniture installation: Benches, bike racks, bins, bollards, planters and shelters—installed to durable standards and coordinated with the streetscape aesthetic.
  • Lighting and electrical: LED street and pathway lighting, decorative luminaires, and power connections for events and signage.
  • Signage, wayfinding and road markings: Clear, compliant signage and high-visibility line marking to improve navigation and safety.
  • Drainage and stormwater solutions: Integrated kerb and channel, infiltration trenches and permeable paving to manage runoff and support sustainability goals.
  • Public art and placemaking features: Installation coordination and foundations for sculptures, murals and community art that build local identity.
  • Maintenance and aftercare: Scheduled maintenance, planting establishment, and warranty-backed repairs to protect your investment.
