We're calling on the NSW and Australian governments to commit to 10 infrastructure and policy priorities for a Fairer Hills Future.

The Hills is one of the fastest growing areas in Australia, and we've been given the highest housing targets in the state. We need urgent state and federal investment to ensure our community can thrive in the face of unprecedented population growth.

Our asks include upgrading Windsor and Old Windsor roads, more schools, and essential infrastructure funding for Box Hill.

Some of our asks aren't within the Hills, but they're big picture solutions, like the Outer Sydney Orbital (M9) which would redirect traffic from Windsor Road.
