Capital of the North: The Vision

Broadmeadows is set to become Melbourne’s ‘Capital of the North’ over the next 20 years.  The centre will be transformed into a place to visit and socialise - not only for its diverse cultural experiences, opportunities for employment and lifelong learning, but also because of its attractive safe and inspiring urban environment. 

Broadmeadows will be a great place to live, with vibrant neighbourhoods that are close to beautiful parks and natural landscapes.  Residents will be able to prosper and share in a better quality of life, resulting from increased investment in civic, community and recreation facilities and services, and by being able to work close to home.  Residents will have healthy, active lifestyles that are sustained by walking, cycling and using public transport as part of everyday life.

The local and regional community will feel a sense of pride in Broadmeadows as the premier regional destination in northern Melbourne.

In order to achieve the vision, the plan sets out overarching objectives, strategies and actions based on the following themes:

• Theme 1: Built form, public realm and sustainability

• Theme 2: Enterprise, retail and business

• Theme 3: Housing

• Theme 4: Community and culture

• Theme 5: Transport and access

• Theme 6: Open space and recreation
