A ground-breaking event was held today with Minister for Development Victoria and Precincts, Housing and Building and Suburban Rail Loop, the Hon. Harriet Shing to mark the occasion. Latrobe City Council Mayor, Councillor Dale Harriman thanked the Victorian Government for their investment in the project.
"Car parking has been a key theme in our annual customer satisfaction survey and many other consultations. It is fantastic to have the Kay Street Car Park underway for our community. The project is set to provide an additional 430 spaces within the Traralgon CBD close to key amenities. This is in addition to 112 new spaces recently opened in the Seymour Street Car Park."
"I'd also like to recognise Katz Architecture for their design work for the project that has incorporated our community's feedback on what is a challenging site," said the Mayor. Community members can register for SMS project updates and find alternate parking arrangements online at Latrobe City - YourSay website.
