Infrastructure NSW (formerly UrbanGrowth NSW) is developing a vision for the growth and development of the Bays Market District/Blackwattle Bay over the next 20-30 years. Master plan options are being developed alongside the redevelopment of the new Sydney Fish Market. It is anticipated that Infrastructure NSW will consult the community on the master plan options in 2020 and further information on the master planning process is available on the INSW website.

Both development applications were on exhibition until 13 November 2019 and INSW is now preparing a formal Response to Submissions.
