Mornington Racecourse will receive a $4.6 million boost to dramatically improve its facilities as part of several major infrastructure and capital improvements at regional and rural racing and training venues across the state.
The Mornington Racing Club will benefit from four major projects under the $86 million Regional Racing Infrastructure Fund (RRIF), developed in partnership by the State Government, Racing Victoria Limited and Country Racing Victoria. The fund represents the biggest State Government investment in rural and regional racing venues in Victoria’s history.
The largest project is a $4.2 million treated water pipeline connecting the Mornington racecourse to the Eastern Outfall, which will provide on-site storage, pumps and other works to drought proof the racecourse.
Three other projects – a sand track upgrade, new barrier gates and replacement of a retaining wall – will also be introduced.
