Next stage of Monash Freeway upgrade moves a step closer! I have long campaigned to make the Beaconsfield Interchange and the extension of O’Shea Road project a reality, which would greatly benefit residents in the south east. Finally, the work starts next year; however, the money was committed back in 2016 to State Government.
The funding will enable the completion of the full scope of Stage 2 of the project, which will create extra lanes, upgrade Beaconsfield Interchange and duplicate O’Shea Road. The project would deliver long-lasting benefits for my local community.
Minta City will offer a unique setting that is attractive to ‘next generation’ businesses and workers who are seeking the amenity and synergies offered by a CBD location, but without the Melbourne CBD commute. Minta City will include a mix of employment and residential land. The City will be strategically positioned adjacent to the Princes Freeway with a direct connection proposed through a future upgrade to the Beaconsfield interchange and O’Shea Road. In addition, the workforce and residents will be supported by close connectivity to the Beaconsfield Train Station and Melbourne’s metropolitan railway line.
This is an IT and advanced manufacturing employment precinct, which is destined to bring 10,000 new jobs to our local area.
