Sydney's Growth Centres

The North West and South West Growth Centres were identified for Greenfield land release by the NSW Government in 2005, with first release Precincts formally released for planning in 2006.

The Growth Centres will eventually provide around 181,000 dwellings and $7.5 billion in infrastructure for about half a million new residents within the North West and South West Growth Centres.

The Department of Planning & Infrastructure works with infrastructure agencies, industry, local councils, landowners and the community to rezone land and coordinate essential infrastructure delivery to kickstart development.

The Department will consult with councils and landowners in developing the plans for each precinct in the Growth Centres. This will result in new zonings and controls for the precincts. Councils will identify what types of local infrastructure are required in the precincts, such as parks, community facilities, drainage and local roads.

In July 2009 the Department of planning announced that the South West Growth Centre precincts of Austral and Leppington North have been released so that the rezoning process can begin.
