Delacombe is a large and rapidly growing industrial/residential suburb on the south west rural-urban fringe of Ballarat, Victoria, Australia. The population at the 2011 census was 4,932 making it the sixth most populated in the Ballarat urban area.
Delacombe forms a large part of the Ballarat West Growth Area where suburban development is encouraged by the City of Ballarat and State Government of Victoria. Much of the city's planned subdivision for new housing estates is happening in Greenfield land in and around the suburb and it is predicted to be home to over 12,000 residents in 2030.
Named after former Governor of Victoria, Rohan Delacombe, it is one of the few Ballarat suburbs with its own shopping centres and a future activity centre for the suburb is planned by the City of Ballarat.
“Our company has been using Forbes Travel for most of our corporate travel in the five years I have been working here. I have found them to be one of the best, if not The Best, travel agencies I have worked with over my many years working in an office. All the agents are extremely friendly and efficient, with a very short turnaround time on flight requests, usually within an hour or two. I have also used their leisure division for my personal travel and would definitely recommend Forbes Travel for corporate and personal travel arrangements.”
