Growth in Western Sydney
A three year high in industrial developments has hit Western Sydney bringing new jobs to the region.
The value of approvals in the industrial sector has increased by $140 million to a total of $6 million last year.
This resurgence in industrial property highlights the importance of ensuring strategic planning is in place for employment lands and infrastructure.
This is vital to forward planning for industrial needs, road and rail upgrades and corridor reservation, and Badgerys Creek airport.
The Property Council calls for the accelerated release of an employment lands strategy and the broader regional metro strategy for Sydney.
