Eastern Broadacre Planning Study
Future employment corridor
The ACT Planning and Land Authority is looking at ways to create an employment corridor in the eastern area of the ACT (incorporating the area from Majura to Hume).
This is consistent with actions identified in The Canberra Spatial Plan (2004), the ACT Government’s key plan for the growth of Canberra over the next 30 years.
Much of the area to the city’s east is currently zoned Broadacre under The Territory Plan. The Eastern Broadacre Planning Study will help identify areas which may be suitable for future development for employment uses, and those which should be set aside for environmental, transport or other needs.
It may lead to changes to the Territory Plan to provide a greater range of employment uses (such as industry, commercial, warehousing, tourism etc).
A fact sheet (PDF 3Mb) is available on the project.
Consultation on a draft study is expected to occur in 2010, subject to government approval. Details will be provided closer to this time.
Following consultation, the study will be presented to government for consideration.
