Funding will be provided in the 2024-25 ACT Budget to progress development of the Bruce Sports, Health, and Education Precinct.
The ACT Government intends to partner with the Commonwealth Government to develop a mixed-use urban renewal precinct, with housing, commercial, hospitality and retail opportunities to support sport, health and education infrastructure projects.
Through various 2024-25 Budget allocations, the Government will progress planning for the new Northside Hospital, a renewed CIT campus and a new Stadium. This work will complement the Commonwealth Government’s AIS precinct renewal announced in the recent Federal Budget.
The Commonwealth’s decision to invest in the AIS precinct is the catalyst to work together to significantly improve the surrounding area and maximise the community benefit.
The Government will consider options for the development, including the optimal delivery model and the declaration of an urban renewal site. This declaration will help coordinate ACT Government Directorates and agencies to work together on the precinct planning.
