Background and Rationale

The City of Ballarat introduced the Ballarat West Development Contributions Plan (DCP) for development of land in Ballarat West Growth Area. The sub-precinct Bonshaw Creek has seen large residential and commercial development occurring and reconstruction of key roads within this sub-precinct. The northern section of Webb Road was reconstructed recently as part of a residential development resulting in the road alignment of Webb Road having the appearance of a continuation of Ascot Gardens Drive.

The City of Ballarat is proposing to rename this section of Webb Road to Ascot Gardens Drive to avoid confusion about the road alignment for residents and emergency services.
