In recent years, Council has delivered the Springvale Hub and newly revitalised Springvale Boulevard.
These projects celebrate the area’s rich cultural tapestry and provide a renewed sense of pride, which we hope the Springvale Revitalisation Action Plan (SRAP) will build upon.
The SRAP has been shaped by invaluable input from the community and stakeholders and aligns with the approved Springvale Activity Centre Structure Plan 2017.
This action plan encompasses a diverse array of cultural, economic and public realm initiatives.

How will we deliver change?
The Action Plan will be delivered over a period of 10 years or more. We will continue to engage with the community and test our ideas to ensure we are all working together.
Projects and ideas will be identified for delivery in short, medium and long term timeframes.
Council is committed to a thoughtful and staged approach to the revitalisation of Springvale. This process will ensure that decisions are informed by community and stakeholder priorities.
The following principles will guide the development of the plan
- Create the least amount of disruption to services, access, and transport connections.
- Keep the community informed of changes occurring across Springvale via a temporary information hub. Trialing ideas prior to significant investment, allowing for community feedback.
- Build infrastructure to enable improvements.
How did we engage with community to develop the plan?
The Springvale Revitalisation Action Plan (SRAP) has been created through extensive community consultation, workshops, walks on Country and online engagement activities.
Activities were designed to understand hopes and dreams, capture a vision for Springvale and involve the community in setting priorities for delivery.
Consultation has been crucial to understanding what makes Springvale special, and which areas most need to be upgraded or improved.
