Riverstone Town Centre

Blacktown

The Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure (the Department) worked with Blacktown City Council (Council) and other Government agencies to prepare a new Rezoning Proposal for the Riverstone Town Centre that considers previous planning proposals as well as Council’s master plan.

More information about plans for the Riverstone Town Centre is available on the Department’s website.

Key features of the Rezoning Proposal include:

  • approximately 3,600 new homes including a minimum of 1.5% affordable housing 
  • up to 5 ha of employment land and 1,200 jobs
  • over 8 ha of new or improved open space including a sports oval
  • a new main street along George Street with retail, dining and shopping areas
  • improved transport connections including an upgraded station area, cycleways and pedestrian pathways
  • increased building heights from between 2 to 15 storeys
  • an improved flood resilient neighbourhood.

The community is encouraged to submit their feedback below. Click ‘Make a Submission’ until 2 July 2025. 

Feedback received during exhibition will inform the finalisation of the Rezoning Proposal, with a decision expected to be made in early 2026.
