Our vision
Fixed trading stalls in open sheds, sheltered in a structured perimeter to surrounding streets.
The experience of shopping with favourite fresh produce and general merchandise traders in the Victorian sheds is sustained with modern infrastructure that ensures the market’s viability and reduces the intrusion of service vehicles into public areas. A built perimeter comprising the Victoria Street shops, F Shed and the old cemetery wall, and new buildings along Peel and Queen streets shelters the open sheds and provides activity onto surrounding streets.
Current priorities
- Resolve conflicts between forklift and other service vehicles and public access.
- Improve access for delivery including off-street loading and break-down areas, wash-down service and storage facilities.
- Create high quality fixed stalls.
- Improve trader facilities including showers, toilets, breakout spaces and storage.
- Improve waste management facilities with a focus on organic waste.
- Develop sustainable precinct-wide infrastructure.
