Bendigo Airport Redevelopment
This project involved a combined planning scheme amendment and planning permit application for the construction of a new $15 million runway at the Bendigo Airport. Centrum Town Planning prepared amendment documentation, new design and development overlays, a permit application report and draft planning permit.

Centrum Town Planning advised Council on a range of new planning provisions that related to height limits for surrounding development, noise controls and land use provisions.

The new runway has been constructed and is now a major piece of economic, tourism and emergency services infrastructure for central Victoria.
