Sydney Water recently held an information session on the Aerotropolis Integrated Stormwater scheme and the implications for development across Western Sydney are significant.
The Draft Development Servicing Plan sets infrastructure contributions at $1,188,548 per net developable hectare across the Aerotropolis initial precincts, covering Aerotropolis Core, Badgerys Creek, Agribusiness, and Northern Gateway. The scheme integrates stormwater harvesting, wetlands, bioretention systems, and a recycled water network across 5,650 hectares of one of Australia's fastest-growing urban areas.
For developers and landowners in the precincts, the decisions being made now around stormwater and drainage design will have a direct impact on project feasibility and timing.
The Draft DSP is open for public submissions until 9 June 2026.
