Construction of stage three of the Sunbury Business Park on
Vineyard Rd is in full swing, with work on the Masters Hardware
site well underway.
It marks the beginning of a hardware competition war between the chains in our area.
The Sunbury Business Park will be located near a proposed second train station within the recently expanded Urban Growth Zone.
What will it mean to Diggers Rest? The hardware stores, with the remaining business park, is expected to create hundreds of employment opportunities. What will traffic be like along Vineyard Road? Will hardware competition overcome the monopoly prices of the existing Bunnings?
Certainly the development will link Sunbury and Diggers in a new way - almost removing the last unpopulated land. The American corporations must be expecting a population boom to warrant their investments.
