Our Priority Projects program provides funding for short-term projects or pilot initiatives. This allows us to deliver on important issues for the community, while making sure that project funding doesn’t become part of the recurrent operating budget. It is another example of our commitment to financial sustainability, transparency and accountability.
In 2023–24, we have planned Priority Projects for the coming year and provided details for projects over the next 3 years.
The Priority Projects budget for 2023–24 includes projects that support all of our strategic objectives.
These projects include:
- implementing the Urban Biodiversity Strategy
- investigation and design of the Box Hill to Hawthorn Strategic Cycling Corridor.
You can find more information about our Priority Projects in Appendix C of the Budget 2023–24.
