Varsity Station Village
a transit oriented community

Varsity Station Village - Thank you for your comments.

The draft Master Plan was released by Minister for Transport John Mickel for public consultation in November 2008. Over 300 people attended 7 events that were held in a four week period. Submissions closed on 5th December 2008, 30 official submissions were received, and these are currently being assessed by the planning team. The Master Plan will be finalised in the coming months, and uploaded to this website for viewing. The land sale process will also be decided and begin this year.

The draft Master Plan has been produced collaboratively over the past year by a team of consultants led by the Department of Transportand Main Roads. The expertise included traffic and transport, architecture, urban design, engineering, housing and economics. Gold Coast City Council, Trackstar Alliance and Main Roads have also been involved in the process.

The Varsity Station Village precinct will feature residential, retail and commercial buildings providing services, shops, employment and apartment style living all in close proximity to high quality public transport.

There could be between 600 — 900 residences, accommodating between 1250 — 1900 people. There will also be shops and commercial space which could provide up to 2500 office jobs, and up to 350 retail jobs. The draft Master Plan report contains detailed information about the types of facilities, transport and public space for the site. The draft Master Plan is available to download, or you can contact the project team for more information.
