Dunkeld Visitor Information Centre
A grant to the Southern Grampians Shire Council helped redevelop the Dunkeld Visitor Information Centre.
The upgrade to this key economic and community asset improves the information centre's capacity to promote the region and local businesses to more than 25,000 tourists each year.
Strategically positioned at the southern end of the Grampians National Park, and improvements to the centre's landscaping, signage and amenities will encourage the use of the centre by tourists visiting the park or travelling the internationally recognised Great Southern Touring Route.
Remodelling of the customer service area, new lighting, painting and carpeting provided users with contemporary and professional facilities, creating a flexible space for meetings and workshops by local business and community groups.
The addition of a rainwater tank and fire systems has added essential fire prevention capabilities to the centre and local area.
