MAB Corporation is delivering a staged $1 billion mixed-use development named University Hill that will generate over 3,500 jobs. La Trobe University is executing an ambitious $5 billion plan to transform its Bundoora campus into a University City of the Future, featuring a new research precinct and residential spaces. A new $500 million residential and retail hub called Polaris 3083 is being built on the former Larundel Hospital site, delivering over 1,100 dwellings and a new town centre next to La Trobe University.
The $82 million Health Clinic at La Trobe University is scheduled to open by mid-2026 as part of the campus masterplan. These projects continue to move through their scheduled phases without interruption reported in the latest records.
Further details on staging and timelines remain tied to the individual project schedules already under way. Residents can monitor updates through the official project pages maintained by the responsible organisations.
