Early works have commenced on a $10 million redevelopment of Carramar Golf Course following the appointment of Yanchep-based Hickey Constructions to deliver the major works.
The contract was awarded by the City of Wanneroo as part of a broader push to modernize municipal golf infrastructure in the area.
Key Features of the Upgrades
The project includes the construction of a new 33-bay undercover floodlit driving range equipped with automated ball distribution and collection systems.
Additional facility upgrades feature:
- A refurbished clubhouse incorporating a commercial kitchen, lounge, simulator and tuition room, and an outdoor deck overlooking the 18th green.
- Enhanced changeroom facilities.
- A dedicated electric cart storage facility.
Construction is already underway on the new cart shed, and temporary facilities are currently operating for the pro shop and hospitality services.

The upgrades aim to enhance the experience for current golfers while attracting new players through modern technology.
The driving range at Marangaroo is currently closed—except on Sundays—for approximately four to five weeks to accommodate early-stage work. The main tender for the Marangaroo project is scheduled for announcement in the coming weeks, with construction expected to begin later this year.
