Progressing New Glenorchy Sports Centre
The highly anticipated Glenorchy Sports Centre has marked a significant milestone, with the Tasmanian Government lodging a development application to the Glenorchy City Council.
Minister for Sports and Events, Nick Duigan, said the DA lodgement highlighted the importance of the facility for local athletes and sporting clubs as well as the Glenorchy and Greater Hobart communities.
“The Glenorchy Sports Centre is set to be a game-changer for our local sports scene, I look forward to seeing this vision become a reality,” Minister Duigan said.
“This development will introduce four much-needed indoor courts, significantly enhancing the sports infrastructure in the Greater Hobart area.
“It will provide world-class facilities that cater to athletes of all levels and abilities, fostering growth and excellence in sports.
“With the DA now lodged we are one step closer to delivering a centre that will serve as a vibrant hub for sport, recreation, and the local community.”
The Glenorchy Sports Centre will feature indoor sporting facilities, including multi-purpose courts and modern amenities to support a wide range of indoor sports.
The project forms part of our 2030 Strong Plan for Tasmania’s Future to invest in infrastructure that fosters active lifestyles and strengthens local communities.
The Government is focused on ensuring the facility is delivered as soon as possible, with construction to begin as soon as approvals are received.
“Our focus is on getting shovels in the ground and delivering a high-quality centre that will be enjoyed for generations to come,” Minister Duigan said.
The DA is expected to be advertised publicly by the Glenorchy City Council in coming weeks.
