For more than 75 years Bombo Quarry has been playing a critical role in supplying ballast, aggregates and road base across NSW.
The Transport Asset Manager of NSW (TAM) and Boral are working together to progress plans for the future Bombo Quarry Precinct, with the aim of creating a new coastal village with a sustainable, vibrant community once quarrying ends.
ABOUT THE PROPOSAL
Unlocking Bombo Quarry Precinct Master Plan (the Master Plan) is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to create a sustainable and vibrant community once the current quarry operations cease. Bombo Quarry will become a new coastal community that celebrates its rich heritage, regenerates the landform, and provides a range of sustainable homes and jobs for current and future generations.
Over the last two years, we have been working with the NSW Government, Kiama Municipal Council and the local community to understand how the future of this unique site may be realised over the next 5, 10 and 20 years while respecting the area's unique landform and character. The project team has considered feedback received and made some changes to the Master Plan.
It is aligned with Kiama Council’s Local Housing Strategy and supports actions within the NSW Government’s Illawarra Shoalhaven Regional Plan 2041, including the development of a vision for this site.
The proposed development seeks to address the challenges of housing affordability and diversity by providing more than 2,000 new homes in a range of housing types, including affordable housing.
CAPTURING YOUR FEEDBACK
TAM and Boral are finalising the Master Plan and preparing to lodge a State Significant Development Application for the rehabilitation works, along with a Planning Proposal to establish the land use framework required to deliver the Master Plan.
Community feedback has informed the final Master Plan. More information on next steps can be found on this website.
