Long Term Infrastructure Plan
Council's Long Term Infrastructure Plan outlines the infrastructure programs and projects planned for delivery throughout the Shire over the next 10 years and beyond.
Looking to the financial year ahead, Council's Draft Long Term Infrastructure Plan details the delivery of $43 million of exciting community projects across the Shire.
Through the delivery of major road works, playground renewals, community facility upgrades, open space improvements and more, Council will continue to invest in projects that make Baw Baw a healthy, sustainable, and thriving community for the benefit of residents and visitors alike.
Headlining the Long Term Infrastructure Program is a suite of high-value strategic and renewal projects, including:
- $12.50 million for road projects across the Shire, including $2.00 million for upgrades to Copelands Road, Warragul
- $6.04 million for pathways projects, including $2.12 million for the continuation of Stage One of the Rokeby - Noojee Trail
- $3.60 million for the reconstruction of the Drouin Recreation Reserve Playing Oval
- $1.30 million for upgrades to the Dowton Park Pavilion, Yarragon
- $1.00 million for the delivery of the Rollo Street Master Plan, Yarragon
These are just a few of the projects set to benefit the Baw Baw community as part of this year's Draft Long Term Infrastructure Plan and while these projects will have an immediate impact, Council has an eye on the future too.
Through the continuation of its financially responsible, 'Plan, Design, Deliver' approach, Council will continue to deliver the infrastructure required to meet the needs of our growing population.
