(Photo by Scott Barbour/Racing Photos) Moe Racecourse will have a facelift in the new year, with an investment from the Allan Labor Government to increase the quality and accessibility of its facilities. Minister for Racing Anthony Carbines today welcomed the upgrades, which have been co-funded between the Labor Government, the Moe Racing Club and Racing Victoria. The project will deliver new and improved jockey rooms, as well as a redesign of the administration building. To improve accessibility, new bathroom facilities for people with disabilities or compromised mobility will be built along with a lift to improve access to upper levels of the administration building installed. The $1 million investment from the Victorian Racing Industry Fund will support the project, with the Moe Racing Club contributing almost $2 million and Racing Victoria providing a further $300,000. This project will ensure jockeys, trainers and staff attending Moe Racecourse are provided with high quality and fit for purpose facilities on race days. The community will also benefit with the creation of 80 jobs during the construction phase, which began in July this year and is expected to be completed by April 2024. Since December 2014, the Labor Government has invested more than $1.3 million to support nine thoroughbred racing events and six infrastructure projects at the Moe Racing Club.
