Exciting news, construction has officially commenced on Melton City Council’s new state-of-the-art Aquatic and Leisure Centre in Fraser Rise, the largest capital project in Council’s history.
Set to open in 2028, the two-storey centre will feature indoor and outdoor pools, splash play areas, water slides, Australia’s first water sensory space, fitness facilities, allied health services, community rooms, and a rooftop deck. The all-electric design is targeting a 5 Star Green Star accreditation, with Kane Constructions now beginning site establishment, excavation, and foundation works.
Funded by Council with support from a $15 million Australian Government Thriving Suburbs Program grant, the new centre will become a major destination for health, wellbeing, and community connection.
Mayor Cr Lara Carli said construction starting early is “a major milestone” and thanked all partners helping bring the project to life.
