What is WestInvest?

Canterbury-Bankstown Council has been advised that it will be receiving funding under the NSW Government’s WestInvest program. This program will help fund the delivery of transformational infrastructure projects to enhance communities and help create jobs in Western Sydney. The program will help improve local communities by focusing on projects that will revitalise our town centres, deliver new community infrastructure, upgrade local parks and sporting fields, and improve active transport links.

Funding focus areas

  • Quality green and open spaces

    More parks and healthier natural environments that encourage active lifestyles and restore biodiversity. Cleaner natural waterways with improved access for recreation including swimming.

  • 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.
