The Hopkins Prison Expansion project is part of the broader Victorian Prison Infill Expansion Program being conducted across 5 prisons in the State of Victoria. The construction of a new building to facilitate 94 new and replacement beds built within an operating prison environment is an augmentation of the existing Public Private Partnership between Community Safety Building Authority and Aegis Correctional Partnership Pty Ltd. This new facility is delivered with a combination of onsite and offsite modular construction methodologies set in a regional precinct and supported by a band of refurbishment work fronts.
