WestInvest – transforming and enhancing liveability across Western Sydney

Our Director Rocco Furfaro was invited to attend the Business in Western Sydney Roundtable Lunch Event, where The Hon Matt Kean MP, Treasurer of NSW, presented the NSW Budget 2022/23 Half Year Review to a small group of industry leaders.

Some great initiatives were presented, including further details on the allocation of the $5 billion WestInvest program. The program aims to secure the best quality of life for the people of Western Sydney – one of the country's fastest-growing and most diverse populations.

Treasurer Matt Kean today revealed more than $250 million for local councils, community groups and the Western Sydney University in Parramatta to provide 16 transformational projects, including new parks and walking tracks, youth hubs, libraries, school upgrades and sporting precincts

Other WestInvest projects include:

1. $1.8 billion to deliver new and improved schools and critical road upgrades.
2. More than $1.3 billion for councils and community groups to deliver 100 projects in Western Sydney with more projects to be announced.
