East Gippsland Newspapers to Move From 120-Year Bairnsdale Home
EAST Gippsland Newspapers is a step closer to relocating its editorial headquarters and printing facilities to out of town.
Last month, the East Gippsland Shire Council amended a zoning affecting a site at 870 Princes Highway, in Hillside, on the western outskirts of Bairnsdale – where EGN wants to build its next centre of operations.
EGN has outgrown its MacLeod Street office and is leaving Bairnsdale after almost 120 years. Its proposed new Hillside headquarters, which relied on this council amendment to get moving, will be prominent to rail as well as road commuters heading into the township, as it also abuts the Melbourne Bairnsdale Railway Line.
