Future Broadmeadows - have your say!

Broadmeadows Activities Area is set to become Melbourne's capital of the north over the next 20 years.  It will be a regional hub for offices and employment, supported by a mix of retail, leisure, learning, new housing and transport facilities.

To achieve this new role significant growth is anticipated and the Victorian Government in partnership with Hume City Council have a 20-year plan to sustainably manage change in Broadmeadows.

The Draft Structure Plan sets out a dynamic future for Broadmeadows Activities Area as it seeks to attract more people, jobs and businesses to the area.  It is estimated that the revitalisation has the potential to create up to 6,500 new homes and 3,000 new jobs.

The plan has been formulated with input from the community.  It sets out how land should be managed, what infrastructure should be provided, and the scale of new development.

Consultation on the Draft Broadmeadows Structure Plan was held from 2 November to 9 December 2011.  Residents, community groups, businesses, and other stakeholder groups were invited to have their say on the updated plan for Broadmeadows and were encouraged to share their opinions through a range of activities including workshops, information stalls, an online survey and online forum.
