The City of Greater Geelong is proposing to rename the following roads in Mt Duneed:

• Pearlrock Drive to Freedom Drive, Mt Duneed.
• Absalom Street to Stream Street, Mt Duneed.

The existing names of Pearlrock and Absalom were chosen prior to subdivision of the adjoining allotment and were always temporary road names. Temporary road names are utilised when the road is not navigable from point A to point B during subdivision processes.

The renaming of these roadways is being completed in accordance with the Naming Rules for Places in Victoria and to ensure public safety is met with clear and logical numbering and naming of roadways.

Submissions in regards to these renamings are open until Monday 23 December, 2024.

Please submit your submissions below.
