How we reported this
The City of Kingston has awarded a $1.93 million contract to Jaydo Construction Pty Ltd for the full reconstruction of Beilby Street in Moorabbin, including new drainage pipes, asphalt pavement, footpaths and kerbs.
Street reconstruction improves local conditions
Residents along Beilby Street will see changes to drainage and pavement that address existing issues with water flow and road surface. The project covers the entire street length and adds updated footpaths and kerbs to support safer pedestrian movement.
Airport investment supports precinct activity
Moorabbin Airport has invested $500 million into its infrastructure, with a further $285 million planned over the next eight years after approval of its 2021 Master Plan. Two major industrial developments are near completion at the airport site: a Goodman automated distribution facility for Lawrence and Hanson due in November 2024, and a four-level strata industrial hub at KEYS101 on 101 Keys Road, described as Victoria’s highest multi-level industrial warehouse.
Transport links expand access options
Upgrades to the Frankston rail line worth $100 million are planned for the area. The nearby Dingley Bypass is set for completion within two years, which will improve road connections to Moorabbin.
Housing plans tied to infrastructure funding
Moorabbin is designated as a key activity centre with plans to deliver 5,000 to 6,800 new homes by 2051. New local infrastructure funding mechanisms will enable development ranging from three to twelve storeys in appropriate locations. These measures link transport and street improvements to the capacity for additional housing.
Work on Beilby Street is scheduled to begin once contracts are finalised, while the rail upgrades and bypass remain in the planning and construction pipeline. Residents can monitor updates through City of Kingston channels for any temporary traffic adjustments during the street project.
