Media Release: Rosehill Metro stop and 25,000 additional housing supply welcome

Urban Taskforce CEO, Tom Forrest has welcomed reports that the Minns Government will add an additional Metro station at Rosehill Racecourse.

Expected to be formally announced by the Premier tomorrow (Thursday), the extra station is targeted to produce an extra 25,000 homes.

An extra station in the Camellia / Rosehill precinct has been consistently supported by the Urban Taskforce, as well as the University of Western Sydney (located across the river), the Camellia development community, Parramatta Council and (importantly) has no local residents to object to the plans for height and density.

The decision means that Parramatta will have an eastern gateway to its city centre that it can be proud of.
