Project Brief
The Macedon Ranges Regional Sports Precinct is a three-stage $44.5 million project incorporating expansive indoor and outdoor recreation.
As Superintendent’s Representative, we provided comprehensive project management services for Stage One to ensure the successful completion and hand over to the community of Stage One, and establishing the design for Stage Two.
This project represents the largest capital works project ever undertaken by Macedon Ranges Shire Council.

Spread across two interconnected sites in New Gisborne, the precinct is located at the intersection of Barringo and Hamilton roads.
Stage One of the precinct was officially opened in June 2024 and includes:
- A three-court sports stadium
- A kiosk and office space
- Car parking/drop-off area
- A natural grass AFL/cricket oval
- Change rooms
- A pavilion featuring a multi-function space
- A fitness loop and outdoor fitness equipment
- External half-court basketball
- A playground
- Barbecue areas
- Water saving and flood mitigation infrastructure
- New roundabout
- Signalised pedestrian crossing.
Project Outcomes
The new precinct is a state-of-the-art facility designed to cater to the needs of the community.
Whilst being a dedicated venue for local sporting clubs, the precinct hopes to encourage participation and engagement in community sports. Beyond traditional team sports, it offers a range of active recreation options, ensuring there’s something for everyone.
This intergenerational facility is a long-term investment in the health and wellbeing of future generations, providing a valuable resource for the community for many years to come.
