Merrylands. $400 million project on track

The first stage of the $400 million redevelopment of the Stockland Merrylands shopping centre opened in November 2008. The first section of Stage 2 will open in May and the remainder is scheduled to open September. Part of the current 39-year-old centre will close on May 5 for demolition to make way for stages 3 and 4, which could take approximately two-three years to complete. When completed the centre will include over 200 outlets and a 750-seat food court, over two levels, and over 3000 car parking spaces.
