Commonwealth gives the green light to purpose-built Avalon quarantine facility

The Commonwealth has chosen Avalon as the site for a dedicated quarantine facility in Victoria because of its proximity to an airport which can take international arrivals and transport them to quarantine with minimal risk of transmission. While the federal government has given the green light to the project the exact amount of money the Commonwealth will give the Victorian government is yet to be determined. The Victorian government wants $200 million for the project but some of the finer details including whether Avalon airport will contribute to the upfront costs still need to be worked out. The quarantine facility would function in a similar way to the Howard Springs facility in Northern Territory with single story cabin style accommodation located away from major residential areas.
