Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport (WSI) has released its Preliminary Draft Master Plan, which outlines the airport’s key plans and broader ambitions for growth and opportunity over the next two decades. The masterplan has been drafted to meet the increasing demand for aviation services in Sydney, which is set to double over the next 25 years, the airport states.
The airport’s masterplan is composed of four sections:
- The first, the introduction, covers airport facilities and infrastructure and provides context about the masterplan process and the relevant legislative requirements.
- Second is the planning context, which provides an overview of the strategic planning context and outlines the airport’s envisaged growth, including passenger and cargo forecasts.
- Next in the plan is the sustainability section, which overviews WSI’s sustainability vision and strategy.
- The draft concludes with its forward plans, which set out WSI’s long-term plans for sustainable growth, including land use, airside development, terminals and aviation support, ground transportation, utilities development, non-aviation development and airport safeguarding.
