Albert Park MLA Nina Taylor (pictured) is urging Harriet Shing, Minister for Development Victoria and Precincts, to visit Fishermans Bend.
\u201cThe action I seek is for the minister to visit Fishermans Bend to meet with local community members and businesses and discuss the transformation of this nationally significant precinct,\u201d Ms Taylor said.
\u201cI recently met with the minister to discuss the importance of ensuring livability as Fishermans Bend grows over the next 30 years.
\u201cAlready great progress has been made with the Victorian Government\u2019s $197.7 million investment, kickstarting the Fishermans Bend innovation precinct on the former General Motors Holden site. \u201cStage 1, being delivered by Development Victoria, includes the remediation and installation of commercial infrastructure and
services to create an investment-ready precinct.
\u201cWe are already seeing tangible outcomes, with 1500 new weekly bus services running between Fishermans Bend and the city. The Government has also confirmed a preferred route for a future rail tunnel and station locations, which will further unlock
the precinct.
\u201cFishermans Bend is Australia\u2019s largest urban renewal area, covering around 480 hectares, more than twice the size of the CBD.
\u201cBy 2050, it will be home to 80,000 residents and provide employment for up to 80,000 people. The transformation is guided by the Fishermans Bend Framework, ensuring parks, schools, roads, transport and community facilities are delivered to support growth,\u201d Ms Taylor said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
