Building for our growing communities

Greater Sydney’s population continues to grow, requiring Sydney Water to build and operate new water, wastewater, recycled water and stormwater infrastructure.

Infrastructure contributions help recover the costs we incur whenever we provide water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure to new developments or augment our existing networks to cope with increased density in established areas.

Infrastructure contributions will be calculated and applied by geographical area, which will be set out in a Draft Development Servicing Plan for each area.
