Progress on wheel

The Melbourne Star Observation Wheel cabins have been revealed.

The cabins were located in a shed next to the Harbour Town multi-storey carpark and adjacent to the recently-renamed wheel’s construction site.

Last month the roof and sides of the shed were removed, revealing the cabins.

The unveiling suggests installation of the cabins onto the wheel could be the next step.

It’s expected that a timeline for completion and opening of the wheel will be announced once installation of the cabins begins.

So far Melbourne Star Observation Wheel management have been tight-lipped about a possible completion date.

A spokesperson said preparations were underway for the installation of the cabins to begin, but couldn’t confirm when this would happen.
