Why we're consulting

This project seeks to review, understand and develop a set of goals and directions for the Gateway Village precinct in developing a Gateway Village Master Plan.

The master plan will guide future use and activation of Gateway Village as we look to:

  • Build upon and enhance existing spaces and their uses;
  • Explore and identify what the precinct could look like; and,
  • Determine key pillars and values that will underpin the overall future direction of the precinct.

The project will investigate previous master planning related to the site against the current and future need of the precinct based on demographics, considering the overarching vision of the Wodonga Council Plan.

It will consider the way the precinct works now, its role and function for Wodonga, the broader area and natural and physical constraints.

The site can be broken down into the following areas, which are also shown on the map below.

The Gateway Village precinct has been subject to a number of previous studies (1997, 2002 and 2018) that have helped guide decision-making and shape the precinct.

The most recent was a review within the Gateway Island Master Plan 2018. The objective of this planning was to establish an overarching long-term vision and values for the entire area with a lens towards future planning and business opportunities for tourism and social interaction.

As a caravan owner and retired, we believe a caravan park on the Causeway would be amazing for the economy of Albury and Wodonga equally.

This part of Wodonga is a perfect place to put a first-class caravan park. It is a no brainer and should have been done years ago!
