About us

The Community Safety Building Authority (CSBA) designs, procures, builds and upgrades infrastructure to keep the Victorian community safe.

We manage projects including new, expanded and upgraded:

• prisons and youth justice centres
• court and custody facilities
• emergency services facilities
• public safety infrastructure.

As well as keeping the community safe, CSBA’s projects aim to maximise benefit to the Victorian community – creating local jobs and providing opportunities for apprentices, trainees, cadets, Aboriginal people, disadvantaged Victorians and people with disability.

With projects across metropolitan and regional Victoria, an essential part of our work is consulting with Traditional Owners, local councils, local residents and other stakeholders, all the way from planning to opening.
