Accessibility improvements.

Additionally, the broader Ballarat Major Events Precinct will also be boosted with a brand-new athletics track and pavilion (situated south of Mars Stadium) which will be the new home for the Ballarat Regional Athletics Centre.

These enhancements, in partnership with the City of Ballarat, align with the city's vision for a world-class sporting hub.
