Plans for Riverstone East Precinct

Plans have been released for Riverstone East Precinct in the northwest of Sydney. The new community is set to have 5,800 new dwellings, 20 hectares of open space, new schools, walking trails, cycleways and upgrades to local roads and public transport.

15,890 people are expected to live in the Riverstone East Precinct. The precinct is anticipated to benefit from the infrastructure and public amenities being built in the northwest of Sydney, including Sydney Metro Northwest.

The Property Council supports urban renewal to sensibly bring together jobs, housing and transport. The supply of housing will need to be turbocharged otherwise Sydney will face a housing shortage of over 190,000 by 2024.

The draft Precinct Plan for the Riverstone East Precinct is now on exhibition for the public to view and comment on until 18 September 2015. For more information click here.
