People who use Ormond Park and those who live and travel along the CityLink corridor will be aware of the work being carried out on the freeway as part of the CityLink Tulla Widening project.
A lot of the heavy equipment has been using our Ormond Park and its carpark for access to the construction works, and CPB Contractors has shown its support in helping us overcome any inconvenience by sponsoring our match balls this season.
The Tulla project involves adding new lanes and other measures to improve traffic flow across 24 km of freeway between the CityLink tunnels and Melbourne Airport. The project will provide significant travel time savings between Melbourne Airport and Power St during peak periods.
CPB Contractors has been very supportive of the clubs using the park, working with us to minimise disruption and recognising and thanking members for their patience during construction.
If you would like to find out more about the CityLink Tulla Widening project, visit citylinktullawidening.vic.gov.au. The construction team has asked us to wish us all the best for the cricket season and to pass on thanks to everyone for our patience with project work.

OUR NEW CLUBROOMS - NOW THE

DRAWINGS ARE HERE

The $2 million redevelopment and expansion of our Ormond Park pavilion is progressing, with the project plans signed off with the Moonee Valley Council. The next step was the elevations showing the concept of the outside structure, and we received them in December. Here are the elevations - and a link to the PDF document.

We're sure our members will agree that the new rooms are truly something to look forward to.

The features inside the pavilion building. For a more detailed view, click on the link at the bottom of this article. The final plans include much-needed amenities such as a significantly expanded social area, an upstairs scorers/timekeepers box, a functional kitchen and plenty of storage space.

There is still a lot more to be done before construction starts and the finer detail of our new pavilion becomes a reality.
