As part of its COVID-19 Recovery Package to secure and create jobs and boost the region's great liveability, Council has delivered an exciting upgrade to the Miles Visitor information Centre and Miles Historical Village Museum entrance, making it a more vibrant and accessible facility for the region.

The Miles Visitor Information Centre and Miles Historical Village Museum is a key tourist hub in the region. This upgrade has transformed the front entrance and landscaping into a vibrant landmark facility which can be easily identified by travellers, while also enhancing the Miles town centre for residents and visitors alike.
