Doncaster Hill is a sustainable, high density, mixed-use village that provides for high quality urban living.
Located in the heart of Doncaster, Victoria, approximately 12kms from Melbourne's Central Business District.
An activity centre for our community.
We’re continuing to update Doncaster Hill to improve the way our community lives, works and enjoys this neighbourhood.
These works form a part of our infrastructure planning for this area and the long standing Doncaster Hill Strategy.
The concept design for Hepburn Reserve has been developed in response to community feedback and will include outdoor seating, a BBQ area, a drinking fountain, public art, large open lawn areas, a playspace, nature play, canopy tree planting, bike hoops and more.
This small local open space was upgraded in November 2019 to December 2020

Pedestrian signals at the Applewood Retirement Village
Extension to Hepburn Road

With populations on the rise in Melbourne, Doncaster Hill is one of our solutions to meet the challenge of future housing needs. This modern urban village allows those of us who enjoy to live in the suburbs to continue to do so, whilst providing apartment-style living for others.
The Doncaster Hill Strategy helps guide us on the land use and development in this centre.
Many bus routes that are provided by Public Transport Victoria (PTV) travel through Doncaster Hill.
