Lyndhurst is a suburb in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The suburb is split between two local government areas—the City of Casey and the City of Greater Dandenong.
After the Bracks government's decisions to abandon plans for a toxic waste dump near Mildura, the continued use of the existing Lyndhurst facility was part of the replacement plan. [3]
The Casey side of Lyndhurst lies inside the Urban Growth Boundary and there are now new estates such as Fig Tree, Melington, The Rise at Lyndhurst, and the Marriott Waters estates currently under construction. The Greater Dandenong side (to the west of the Western Port Highway) is outside the Urban Growth Boundary and is semi rural.
