The grants and business cases were seeking funding from the NSW governments $5 billion WestInvest program. The program aims to fund transformational infrastructure projects across Western Sydney, home to one of the fastest growing and most diverse populations in the nation. Projects will improve the liveability of communities and support economic recovery, making a difference to the quality of life in 15 eligible LGA’s.

WestInvest Program

The program is designed to deliver transformational change across six key focus areas:
Quality green and open spaces: More parks and healthier natural environments that encourage active lifestyles, restore biodiversity and improve access to nature.
Community infrastructure: Improved access to quality sport, recreation and other community facilities that bring people together and enable a diverse range of activities.
School modernisation: State-of-the-art, cooler and accessible education facilities that can adapt to evolving learning standards and student needs. Infrastructure that prepares students for an increasingly digital world.
Arts and cultural facilities: A broader range of arts and culture venues that reflect the diversity of Western Sydney, encouraging inclusive and regular community participation.
High street activation: Increasing the vibrancy of precincts to increase footfall for businesses. Targeted improvements to public amenities and allowing easier access to essential goods and services within walking distance.
Local traffic programs: Local streets are designed as comfortable, accessible and safe places for people with diverse use needs, including walking, wheeling and cycling.
