The Daily Geelong · Morning briefing

Good morning, Geelong.

1. Council greenlights waterfront upgrade. A $42m revamp of the foreshore precinct passed last night, with works starting in March. What it means for parking, the pier and the Saturday market.

2. Hospital opens new emergency wing. Twenty extra beds, a dedicated paediatric bay, and a triage redesign aimed at cutting wait times.

3. Weekend weather. A mild front rolls through Friday night; Saturday clears to 22°. Full forecast and beach conditions inside.

4. What's on. Three things worth your Saturday — a vinyl-only DJ set, a new exhibition at the gallery, and a sunrise swim at Eastern Beach.

Ready? It takes ten seconds.
