Sunbury to get million-dollar-plus makeover

SUNBURY is set for a million-dollar-plus makeover, with important and playful improvements to the town.

SUNBURY will get a million-dollar-plus facelift after a State Government announcement on Monday.

Sunbury MP Josh Bull announced $875,000 in Government money for the much-anticipated Galaxyland playground revamp and Connecting the Sunbury Town Centre project.

Hume Council is matching the money for both projects.

The new $1 million Galaxyland playground will feature play equipment for children of all ages, including a flying fox, climbing elements, tunnel slide, swings and more tunnels.

The $750,000 for town improvements will go to better laneways, pavements, more trees, improved lighting and space for street art around the CBD.

“I’m really proud to deliver these projects for Sunbury because they will provide vital services to our growing community,” Mr Bull said.

Picnic and barbecue facilities, seating benches and shade are also on the cards.

Hume Council will deliver the projects.

The Sunbury developments will be funded under the Government’s Growing Suburbs Fund.

Also included in the announcement was a $300,000 commitment for the Bulla Village Tennis Club community pavilion.

“This pavilion development will make a real difference because it goes to the heart of building what families need in our community,” Mr Bull said.

“We’re investing in tennis facilities for Bulla because our community is growing and local projects like this will benefit families for years to come.”
