GENERAL CLUB NEWS
Melbourne Water Sewer Project
As of March 1 we have been informed by Melbourne Water that works have stalled again.
We are seeking advice and clarity and we will pass on the news to members when we have any updates.
We will continue to present the area and course as best we can. Compensation is ongoing and payments are not impacted by the delays.
A permanent fence has been erected at Melbourne Waters expense along our boundary from the 14th tee to the 8th bunker area, with temporary fencing along the license area.
The following communication was received by Melbourne Water on March 25 2026;
The Maribyrnong Main Sewer Connection project (MMSC) was placed on hold by Melbourne Water on 20 March 2026. This decision was made by Melbourne Water executive management. We confirm that John Holland KBR will remain custodians of the Medway site for the duration of the period that the project is on hold.
The MMSC project will remain on hold while Melbourne Water coordinates the next stage of works alongside ongoing investigations into flood mitigation measures being undertaken as part of the Maribyrnong River Catchment Flood Mitigation study. The Mitigation study is currently in Phase 2, during which a shortlist of mitigation options is being refined. This stage is anticipated to be completed in mid-2026. Presentation of the study outcomes is expected to be completed in mid to late 2026.
This coordinated approach is intended to ensure that both projects are delivered effectively, efficiently and in a manner that minimises disruption to Medway Golf Club operations and the broader community. For more information about the Mitigation study, please visit our website at: https://letstalk.melbournewater.com.au/maribyrnong-river-flood-model/flood-mitigation-study.
We acknowledge the impact the MMSC project has had on Medway Golf Club operations, and we sincerely appreciate your continued patience. We will provide you with a further update as soon as a confirmed completion timeframe is available.

Precinct Plan progress update March 2026
In December we held an information night to present the Clubhouse and Wider Precinct Plan develop by Well Played Golf Consulting that we adopted to guide improvements, in particular to our practice facilities and access to the clubhouse ‘precinct’ over the next three years.
This note is a progress update to let you know we are moving to execute the plan.
- The first step in the plan is to build a new storage shed, with that work including the demolition of the old pro-shop and the caretaker’s house. This clears the way to renovate the practice green area and related access pathways.
- Council approval is required to proceed.
- Plans for the sheds and the request to remove the buildings were submitted to the council on the 2nd of February.
- We are waiting for the council approvals to come through.
- When the plans are approved, we will conduct a tender process for the building of the new shed and buildings removal.
Cap ex budgets have been set for 2026 to enable the sheds to be built- subject to any extra-ordinary circumstances.
Cap ex budgets for 2027 have been set to enable the extension of the putting green and rebuild of surrounding pathways as a phase 2 project.
2nd Step
Medway is in consultation with Golf Australia and an industry expert partnering with GA, on unlocking land value within golf clubs.
We are close to signing agreements to have a report conducted on the best process for Medway to undertake to utilize surplus land.
