Sydney Metro Northwest Places Program
Landcom and Sydney Metro are working together to plan new places for communities to live, work, shop and play with the easy convenience of Sydney Metro Northwest stations right nearby.
These are Sydney Metro Northwest Places and stretch from Rouse Hill to Epping, providing:
a range of housing choices
spaces for businesses, workplaces and community facilities
walkable places with great access to great transport
sustainable places for current and future communities.
These places will develop over time, up to 10 years or more for some projects, but will be inviting, accessible, walkable places from day one. Over 10 years, the program will deliver:
up to 11,000 new dwellings including diverse housing types for new and future residents
up to 350,000m2 of floorspace dedicated to employment in retail and commercial enterprises
parks and spaces for community use
community facilities.
Transit oriented development
The delivery of high quality places in response to transit oriented development opportunities is essential. Landcom and Sydney Metro have the opportunity to deliver vibrant precincts and new communities built around modern transport options. The map below shows the Landcom development locations in relation to the new Metro Northwest Rail. Learn more about the northwest transport network.
