Guest The Pom Queen Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 The top 5 fastest growing suburbs in Sydney are: Freemans Reach Point Fredrick Connells Point Sylvania Waters Bundeena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintpot Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Odd Fastest growth in terms of what, Kate? I'd never heard of Point Fredrick, looked it up and turns out it's well out of the Greater Sydney metro area in Gosford up on the Central Coast Likewise Freemans Reach is on the other side of the Hawkesbury River, out past Windsor. So that's also probably outside the Sydney metro area Bundeena is locked in by National Park so hard to see how it can grow anywhere, and the other two are again tight into the Georges River near Botany Bay. Don't know them, but surprised if there's lots of land on which to build Meanwhile out in the South West and North West of the city there are subdivisions going in all over the place, but they don't feature. The NSW government is even investing s shedload of money bringing new rail lines into those areas (eventually) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie 2 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Maybe this government will do it! Rail line was promised 20years ago by the other lot and it never happened. The Federal lot are now playing silly buggers with the money. They want another line from Parramatta, which has plenty of public transport, but I suppose there are few Labor votes in the Hills - that's why we're still waiting.

pintpot Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Ok, thanks! As for the rail link, I'm pretty sure it will go ahead this time (I am quite close to the project). NSW government is desperately pushing forward to commit enough funds it won't get canned/redrawn again aven if the other lot get back in next time They've managed to come to an arrangement with the Feds on funding for the North Sydney Freight Corridor and I believe there are quid pro quo type verbal understandings on the funding for the NWRL. Certainly lots of the industry is manning up in the expectation it will happen. Although it will take them a year at least to procure their contractors and you won't see action on the ground until the second half of 2013 IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie 2 Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Let's hope so. Thankfully I don't have to commute anymore as every main road in the Hills as well as the M2 are parking lots during peak times, which get longer all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
