Buninyong's new Police Station opened in 2011. Much larger than previous stations and fitted out with high-tech equipment, the building is designed to meet Buninyong's needs well into the future.
With a solar hot water system, PVC panels to generate its own electricity and numerous solar tube skylights, the new building makes impressive steps to lessen its environmental impact.
