About this project
The Katoomba Town Centre Upgrade program will deliver significant improvements to the Katoomba Street precinct, including safety and accessibility upgrades, new community and cultural infrastructure, and public domain and landscaping improvements for the benefit of residents, business owners and visitors.
The upgrade program will address priorities identified in the Katoomba Masterplan, with improvements in and around Katoomba Street and adjacent laneways.
Proposed works include:
Continuation and completion of street paving, kerbing and guttering upgrades
Improved street furniture
New outdoor public dining facilities
Improved outdoor public event space
Street tree plantings and landscaping
Public art and treatments for cultural and heritage interpretation
Improved directional signage.
Project status
This project is currently in the planning and design phase.
The Katoomba Masterplan was endorsed in November 2023 and provides a 20-year framework to guide sustainable revitalisation, development, and investment in Katoomba. The vision outlined in the Katoomba Masterplan is the result of Council and the community working together between 2020 and 2023, when the plan was endorsed.
An additional round of community consultation was carried out in late 2024, during the planning and scoping phase of this upgrade program, with the responses received being used to inform the design and future evaluation of the upgrades.
Interested community members are encouraged to follow this project (via the right side of this page) to learn about key milestones and any future consultation opportunities.
This project is proudly funded by the NSW Government.
