The NSW Government is addressing the current housing shortage by prioritising the building of more diverse homes in well-located areas near transport, open spaces, schools, hospitals and community facilities. These areas have the infrastructure needed to support a growing population.
Through planning initiatives such as the Transport Oriented Development Program and other reforms for diverse low- and mid-rise homes, the NSW Government is taking action to help build up the housing pipeline and deliver more homes in more places for key workers, families and young people.
