Plan Melbourne refresh

The Victorian Government made a commitment to refresh Plan Melbourne to ensure it addresses climate change, housing affordability and transport priorities.

The refreshed plan builds on the extensive work and consultation underpinning Plan Melbourne 2014 and previous metropolitan strategies including Melbourne 2030 and Melbourne@5million.

The new Plan Melbourne creates a clear direction for planning and a clear vision for Melbourne and Victoria more broadly.

Feedback from community, local government and industry stakeholders was collected via an extensive program of workshops and online consultation.
