Woden Bus Depot | Work to recommission the Woden bus depot at Phillip is progressing with construction to commence in mid-2022. The new depot will improve the efficiency and reliability of the Transport Canberra bus service as buses can be garaged closer to the areas they service, creating less out of service running and a more responsive and flexible operation. | Click here |
Centenary Hospital for Women and Children Expansion | We have invested more than $50 million to expand the Centenary Hospital for Women and Children (CHWC).

Mawson stormwater and placemaking improvements | Design work is underway to address flooding issues in the vicinity of the Mawson Group Centre. Due to the location of the proposed works in the area
between the Southlands Shopping Centre
and the Mawson district playing fields, placemaking improvements are
also being designed. These include improvements to the path network,
landscaping and street lighting. |
