Aerotropolis Sector Plan
The Aerotropolis Sector Plan, developed in collaboration with NSW Government agencies, identifies infrastructure delivery priorities that can enable development, support job creation and maximise economic growth in the Western Sydney Aerotropolis.
Infrastructure NSW is responsible for improving coordination of infrastructure to support freight, logistics and employment related development in Western Sydney and the Aerotropolis. This role is part of its expanded infrastructure Coordinator General function, announced in June 2024.
The Sector Plan sequences and prioritises infrastructure projects in the Aerotropolis, focusing on roads and water-related infrastructure. With a focus on fast-tracking and promoting efficient infrastructure delivery, nearly 4,500 hectares of serviced employment lands by 2030 and is a key driver for investment and development in the area.
Unlocking more serviced employment land is set to ease the cost of doing business, improve the state’s competitiveness, and secure economic opportunities that might otherwise be lost to other states.
Western Sydney Aerotropolis
Spanning 11,200 hectares, the Western Sydney Aerotropolis presents a generational opportunity to create a thriving economic hub set to provide thousands of new jobs closer to home for the people of Western Sydney.
Significant development activity is already in planning and underway in the Aerotropolis across more than 5,000 hectares rezoned for employment uses, valued at almost $26 billion worth of development, and set to provide almost 65,000 jobs.
This potential is supported by significant investments from the NSW and Australian Government of more than $25 billion for transport projects, $1 billion for enabling works to kick-start the Bradfield City Centre, and more than $1 billion for an Advanced Water Recycling Centre and associated waste water, drinking water, and recycling water networks.
With the new Western Sydney International (Nancy Bird-Walton) Airport due to open in late 2026, enabling infrastructure must be delivered quickly and efficiently to make the most of the opportunity.
