Building works has begun on the repurposing of the Outer Metropolitan Multipurpose Correctional Centre (OMMPCC) with the first sods turned.

The repurposing of the Outer Metropolitan Multipurpose Correctional Centre will create almost 300 jobs during construction and around 100 jobs for the area once completed in 2020.

The repurposing of the OMMPCC includes upgrading the centre for better management of minimum and medium-security male inmates and rebuilding 250 beds.

AM Group company Lietzke Security has been contracted by head contractor Hansen Yuncken to supply and install the security windows and doors package on the project.

Lietzke Security is well underway with manufacture and delivery of product to site.
