JORDAN MP Charis Mullen says the construction of the stateâs largest park ânâ ride facility in Springfield is a crucial piece of infrastructure for the rapidly growing area and congestion around the facility would be eased when the cityâs largest road upgrade is completed.
Construction of the facility, which will cost $44.5 million, started in September and it is expected to be finished by early next year.
It will create 1100 new parking spaces with the multi-storey car park located on the off-ramp of the Centenary Motorway towards Springfield Central. The $44.5 million facility is expected to be built by early next year.
