Transforming Mount Druitt
The new library and community hub is one part of a larger Council masterplan for Mount Druitt city centre. Three new community facilities will be built, funded by the NSW Government WSIG program. Soon we will begin renovations to Mount Druitt Swimming Centre. A brand-new First Nations Cultural Hub will also be designed. The masterplan will improve connections for both pedestrians and cars in Mount Druitt city centre. A public garden will be developed, and easy access to car parking spaces will continue.
