Four consortiums have been short-listed and invited to take part in the Request for Proposal (RFP) phase. This process will take 12 weeks to complete and will close on June 17 2016.
Project objective:
The objective of the redevelopment is to transform the Ballarat Station Precinct into a commercial, cultural hub for locals, commuters and visitors.
