A BOARD will be established to oversee the Frankston Station Precinct Redevelopment.

Construction on the $63 million state government project will begin in the first half of next year and is due to be completed in 2019.

The board will be chaired by Frankston Labor MP Paul Edbrooke and will include Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley, Frankston Business Network executive officer Karin Hann, Victoria Police superintendent Glen Weir, Peninsula Health CEO Sue Williams, Monash University vice-chancellor Professor Leon Piterman, Chisholm Institute CEO Maria Peters, South East Water managing director Kevin Hutchings and Bayside Shopping Centre manager Gabe North.

The government says the new board will provide local leadership and will work with residents and businesses to ensure the redevelopment meets the needs of the community and train passengers and visitors to Frankston.

The board will be supported by government officials, including transport planning, operations and infrastructure experts from the Department of Economic Development, Jobs, Transport and Resources and Public Transport Victoria.

The station redevelopment aims to transform the heart of Frankston into a safe, modern hub for transport, TAFE and shopping, with a permanent police presence, new retail and cafe strip and a commercial hub for businesses.

The redevelopment of Young St, in partnership with Frankston Council, is due to begin first.

In addition to this $63 million Frankston Station Precinct Redevelopment, the Labor state government will invest $46.9 million to deliver stage one of improvements to Chisholm TAFE’s Frankston campus.
