What the Victorian Planning Authority is planning for Melton East — the community, the town centre, the schools and the green spine that hold it all together.
Delivered progressively across staged neighbourhoods.
Retail, services and community gathering space at the heart of the precinct.
Reserved school sites integrated with residential neighbourhoods.
Connected parks, creek corridors and conservation reserves through the precinct.
A community sized for the long term in Melbourne's west.
Employment supported by the town centre and precinct services.

How a community like this comes together.
A high-level, indicative timeline — actual sequencing depends on gazettal, developer programs and infrastructure delivery.

Schools, employment and green-spine network fill out the precinct.

Artist's impression — indicative only.
A local heart for the community.
