Molonglo Town Centre

The heart of Molonglo

The Suburban Land Agency has started working on the future Molonglo Town Centre which will be at the heart of a new suburb called simply ‘Molonglo’.

In September 2024, Molonglo was officially recognised as Canberra’s sixth Town Centre under the National Capital Plan. This reclassification recognises the significance of the Town Centre as the main commercial hub of the district.

About Molonglo

The Molonglo Valley, located on Ngunnawal Country, will be home to nearly 70,000 people by 2050. The Molonglo Town Centre, formerly the Molonglo Group Centre, will be at the heart of a new suburb named Molonglo. This area will cover over 97 hectares and stretch 5 kilometres along the Molonglo River, housing around 15,000 future residents. It is located on the western edge of the ACT, south of Belconnen, north of Weston Creek, and east of Denman Prospect, across John Gorton Drive.

Your future town centre plans and features

Molonglo Group Centre

Image description: Preliminary concept masterplan of Molonglo

The Molonglo Town Centre will include:

  • A main shopping and commercial precinct
  • A large retail and service trades area
  • A district library and community centre
  • A high school and college
  • A central playground
  • Four pond park open spaces
  • A shared recreation path next to the river reserve
  • The first 1.3kms of the East West Arterial Road

Public transport and active travel routes will connect the Molonglo Town Centre to nearby neighbourhoods, recreational spaces, and the wider Canberra area. The design will encourage walking, cycling, and using public transport.

Community consultation

The Molonglo Town Centre will be developed over many years in several phases and the community will play a key role in shaping the future Town Centre.

ACT Government has been engaging with Canberrans about Molonglo since 2004 with development of the Canberra Spatial Plan. Community inputs over many years, including the recent Molonglo Valley District Strategy have already begun to guide the strategy and early concept plans.

The community will have several opportunities to influence the development of the Town Centre through consultations and engagements with the next phase of community engagement commencing late 2024.
