What we're working on

The project team is also working through the prioritisation of different options based on the community benefit, cost and deliverability of those designs.

What's coming next

The next part of this project will be to present the different options to Council. The timing of this is still to be confirmed. Once those options are considered, we’ll update this page with next steps.

At this stage in teh design process we’re not considering any additional facilit componentsother than what was included in the above linked Council report.
