In Greater Shepparton, there is currently a shortage of large parcels of land for industry, logistics and manufacturing which have transport connections to major international and interstate freight gateways. The creation of new industrial land will facilitate the expansion and growth of existing businesses and the large sites will accommodate investment from local, national and international investors
Construction of Stage 1 is funded by an $8.5 million investment by the Australian Government, $1,172,966 from the Local Roads Community Infrastructure Program – Department of Transport & Planning, along with a $14.4 million commitment by Council.
The development of land at GV Link has been a long held strategic goal of Council as is highlighted as a key community and economic directive in both the Council Plan (2021- 2025) and its regional growth plan (Shepparton and Mooroopna 2050).
