A 30 year vision for City CBD

The Fountain Gate Narre Warren Central Business District (CBD) is poised to evolve into a true regional urban CBD of national importance. This has arisen from a combination of aspects including its central location to a region of up to half a million people; its significant development opportunities that can be channelled to create quality public places and active streets; its sheer land size; unique level of accessibility, particularly to railways, freeways and highways; and its potential to provide a strong civic heart.

This vision is captured in the Fountain Gate Narre Warren Structure Plan and will depend on a number of actions over the next decade.

Of particular importance will be the creation of active streets, public spaces and the attraction of civic facilities, diverse employment opportunities with additional office space, and a department store which will elevate the centre’s retail status. These changes will provide the catalyst for the key outcomes of improved public transport and housing within the CBD.

Casey is a BIG city with a BIG future. As Victoria’s largest and fastest growing municipality the City of Casey is planning well ahead to help ensure a sustainable, prosperous and vibrant future for its residents now and in the years to come.
