The Shire of Bulla was a local government area located about {{convert|40|km|mi|0}} northwest of Melbourne, the state capital of Victoria, Australia. The shire covered an area of {{convert|422.17|km2|sqmi|1}}, and existed from 1862 until 1994.

History

The Bulla Road District was created on 16 September 1862. It became a shire on 9 March 1866. It gained some territory from the Shire of Broadmeadows in 1955, including then-rural areas such as Craigieburn.[2] The Shire Offices were transferred from Bulla to Sunbury in 1956.[3]

On 15 December 1994, the Shire of Bulla was abolished, and, along with sections of the City of Broadmeadows north of the Western Ring Road and parts of the Cities of Keilor and Whittlesea, was merged into the newly created City of Hume.[4]

Council formerly met at the Shire Offices, in Sunbury. The facility is used today by the City of Hume, Western Water and VicRoads.
