A long-standing part of the community

IRVINE is seeking preliminary masterplan approval to establish the overall vision, intended uses and framework for the future renewal of Toombul, along with approval for operational works including earthworks, flood management and drainage improvements. Together, these applications establish the overall direction and important early works for the precinct, with more detailed design and further applications to be progressed as each stage moves forward.

The master plan sets the overall vision and structure for the site. It shows the intended land uses, building envelopes, public spaces and how people will move through the site.

The application will now be assessed through the regulatory planning process, including consideration by Council and relevant technical authorities. The masterplan will continue to be refined as the assessment progresses, with further detailed design and approvals to be undertaken as individual stages of the renewal move forward. We will continue to provide updates as the project progresses.

Flooding has been a key consideration in designing the new Toombul. Since acquiring Toombul in 2025, IRVINE have undertaken detailed flood studies and assessments as part of developing the new masterplan which has shaped how the site will better manage flooding. The masterplan has been designed to better protect the new precinct from flooding, while safely managing water across the broader site. The new Toombul will incorporate parks and open spaces that will help safely manage and store floodwater during larger flood events. These areas will provide valuable green and recreational space for the community while also helping manage water across the site. Importantly, the flood assessment confirms that the proposed redevelopment will not make flooding worse for surrounding properties, Council land or infrastructure. Flooding has been carefully considered from the outset of the new masterplan, with the aim of creating a safer and more resilient Toombul for the community.

At this stage, specific stores or tenants have not been confirmed for Toombul. The current approval process is focused on establishing the overall master plan and land uses, rather than securing individual retailers. Tenant mix is typically determined closer to delivery of each stage, once detailed designs are finalised and market conditions are clearer. What we can confirm is that we are aware that the community are interested in seeing similar retailers to the former centre & we are aligned in bringing those important businesses back to the community. If you’ve got other ideas for retailers you’d like to see at Toombul, we’d love to hear from you!

We are in the early stages of the project, with our current focus on the master planning process. While it's too early to begin individual leasing conversations, we understand there is significant interest in being part of Toombul's future. If you would like to register your interest and receive updates on leasing opportunities as they become available, please fill out the form at the bottom of our website.

The Toombul bus interchange is an important part of the local public transport network and to the functionality of the site. The proposal is being developed with consideration of how public transport continues to operate in the area, including the role of the bus interchange. Discussions with relevant stakeholders, including transport authorities, will inform how the interchange is integrated into the future precinct.

We recognise the importance of Kedron Brook as a significant environmental and community asset. While the interface beyond the site boundary falls within Council land, we will work closely with Council to deliver an integrated edge condition that responds to its setting. The future design will incorporate considered landscape, environmental and public realm outcomes that enhance connectivity and reinforce the character of the Kedron Brook corridor.

Working with the local community is a priority for this project. Community engagement will occur throughout the planning process, with opportunities for people to share local knowledge, insights and priorities along the way. This feedback will play an important role in shaping the design as it evolves, helping to ensure the renewal of Toombul reflects community needs and priorities, and creates a place with a lasting legacy for the area.
