Help us plan for the future of Croydon

Council is preparing a new Structure Plan for Croydon Major Activity Centre. Share your local perspectives and ideas to help Croydon be a great place to live, work and visit.

Developing the structure plan

As a Major Activity Centre (MAC), Croydon provides a suburban focal point for services, employment, housing, public transport, and social interaction.

Activity centres are important elements of Melbourne’s long-term plan to encourage and manage growth sustainably. You can learn more about the role of activity centres by visiting https://www.planning.vic.gov.au/policy-and-strategy/activity-centres/activity-centres-overview

In 2006, Maroondah City Council prepared the first Structure Plan for Croydon. A lot has happened since then. We are now checking back in with the community to review and update the Plan to ensure it is in line with current social, environmental and economic challenges and opportunities.

The new Structure Plan will be informed by up-to-date evidence, research and community input.
