A transformation of Melbourne Docklands is underway to create one of the world’s great urban domains. Whilst the developments are ongoing, a strategic plan is in place to ensure their outstanding quality.
The vision for the Docklands waterways builds on the following four themes:
- Integrated – water and land, tourism, services, environment including adjoining land uses.
- Accessible – public ownership and use, destination, community boating hub, affordable.
- Active – colour, movement, ebbs and flows, attractive, diverse, events, working harbour.
- Position – international standard, remarkable, world-class.
