Marrickville Music Festival road closures
The Forum supported temporary full road closures for Marrickville Music Festival on Sunday 11 October 2026, subject to standard Council conditions. Closures will affect Marrickville Road, Central Lane, Seymour Lane, Garners Lane and short sections of Silver Street, Garners Avenue, Gladstone Street and Frampton Avenue.

AFLW match road closures at Henson Park
The Forum supported temporary full closures of Woodland Street, Holmesdale Street and Centennial Street for up to 11 AFLW matches at Henson Park, on listed dates from 13 September through November 2026. Approval is subject to a Road Occupancy Licence, Transport for NSW concurrence and notification requirements.
The closures will change local access and traffic arrangements around Henson Park on match days, with residents and businesses to receive written notice at least seven days beforehand.
Electric vehicle charging information
The Forum agreed with the recommendation concerning an EV charging location at 39 Moore Street. Council later advised that another EV charging space is adjacent to the park opposite 1 Ilka Street, and that there is currently no cost to the provider until capital costs are recouped. Questions about general parking use and the commercial arrangement were to be confirmed.
The information may affect future EV charging access and the availability of nearby public parking spaces.
