City of Port Phillip has received a place naming application to name Lane R1599 ‘Boollam Boollam Lane’.

Laneway R1599 runs between Glen Huntly Road, Foam St and Wave St, Elwood. Naming this laneway won’t change your usage of the area or the facilities, but it will assist emergency services to save critical minutes when locating incidents, and improve access for visitors and other essential services such as drivers and deliveries.

It is proposed to name unnamed Laneway R1599 as ‘Boollam Boollam’ meaning ‘Butterfly’ in Boonwurrung language. The proposed name has been assessed against The Naming rules for places in Victoria 2022 (The naming rules (land.vic.gov.au).
