Construction of the Merlynston Creek Crossing

We are calling on the State and Federal Governments to co-fund the construction of the Merlynston Creek Crossing to open land in eastern Broadmeadows for affordable housing and local job creation.

Federal Electorate: Calwell

State Electorate: Broadmeadows

The Merlynston Creek Crossing is a critical infrastructure project to unlock land in the vicinity of the Broadmeadows Town Centre, just ten minutes from the train station, for affordable housing and jobs.

Currently, significant road congestion impedes the development of underutilised land in this strategically important area, stifling local job creation and economic growth. Utilising surplus Federal Government land from the Maygar Barracks, the crossing will alleviate traffic and serve as a catalyst for revitalising the Broadmeadows Metropolitan Activity Centre, improving accessibility and enhancing the quality of life for residents.

Project outcome

Delivery of Merlynston Creek Crossing, addressing a critical infrastructure need and stimulating local job opportunities and economic activity.
