Plan focuses on the eastern part of the Sydney region which includes the Council area, shown in Figure 2-3. Rhodes is identified in the Plan as a Health and Education Precinct, with North Strathfield, Concord, Breakfast Point, Five Dock and Drummoyne identified as Local Centres. Figure 2-3 also identifies the committed transit link (Sydney Metro West) running in an east-west alignment through the LGA. The plan advocates for infrastructure improvements for connectivity, safety and amenity of local areas. Specific priorities which align with the intent of this PAMP include:
Creating vibrant, healthy and safe local neighbourhoods by fostering walkable local areas, including upgrades to pedestrian facilities.
Improving active transport links to and from schools.
Improving active transport connections to and from public transport interchanges to enhance accessibility to the nearest metropolitan cluster.
