Wagga Wagga is one of 4 special activation precincts across NSW that have been identified to become thriving business hubs.

The special activation precinct capitalises on the town’s proximity to the inland rail and aims to foster manufacturing, agribusiness and freight and logistics.

A master plan for the precinct took effect on 21 May 2021. We based it on technical studies that assessed the possible environmental effects on heritage, sustainability and infrastructure. We also incorporated community feedback.

Next steps

We have completed the Wagga Wagga precinct delivery plan, which controls design, landscaping, infrastructure planning, delivery and proposal assessment. It also outlines how businesses can set up and operate.

Applications for the new streamlined planning process should be made to the Regional Growth NSW Development Corporation.

Developments that meet the requirements of the master and delivery plans will be issued an activation precinct certificate for use with a development application or complying development.

The Regional Growth NSW Development Corporation has established a business concierge for the Wagga Wagga precinct. If you want to expand your business or invest in the precinct, call 1300 734 466.
