Meadow Heights 3048 Meadow Heights 3048

Meadow Heights is a residential area 18, km. north of Melbourne and 2 km. north of the Broadmeadows town centre. The east-west flight path for the Melbourne International Airport separates it from Broadmeadows.

Until about 1995 Meadow Heights was part of Coolaroo, from which it is divided by Pascoe Vale Road, although the Urban Land Authority had described the area as Meadow Heights since it acquired land in the area in 1983. The Authority's land comprised about 3,900 house lots, which followed on from the Housing Commission's earlier estates in Westmeadows and which preceded the Authority's next estate at Roxburgh Park to the north.

Meadow Heights is bisected by two watercourses flowing generally south-west, along which there are linear parks. There are also several neighbourhood reserves. Three primary schools, a secondary school and a Catholic school will ultimately be available. Four corner shops, and a shopping centre with a community centre and learning shop, are in the area. In 1994 a survey showed that a high proportion of residents were of non-English-speaking backgrounds, the two largest groups being Turkish and Vietnamese.

The west side of Meadow Heights has a proposed expressway reservation and the east side has Pascoe Vale Road and a railway line. A railway station is proposed at the southern end of Meadow Heights.
