It is connected to the city by rail, the M1 Pacific Motorway and the soon to be completed North Connex connecting the area with Western Sydney. It forms part of the Sydney Greater Metropolitan Area which has a population of some 3.5 million people. The local working population is 104,734 of which approximately 30% commute into the City each day for work. Most of these commuters would prefer to work locally. The Central Coast has a resident population of 337,000 people and will grow to over 400,000 in the next 25 years. Gosford is the Capital City of the Central Coast and is presently seeing unprecedented investment. The NSW Government has made a commitment to the growth of the region and is investing almost a billion dollars in support of that growth while at the same time private investors have invested a similar amount with plans to spend more.

  • Land in Glenworth Valley Gosford City Council
    PLANNING PROPOSAL LAND IN GLENWORTH VALLEY GOSFORD CITY COUNCIL This Planning Proposal has been drafted in accordance with Section 55 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979 and the Department of Planning and Infrastructure's A Guide to Preparing Planning Proposals and Guide to Preparing Local Environmental Plans. A gateway determination under Section 56 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act is requested from the DoP&I. Summary Glenworth Valley is recognised as a highly successful tourist destination which has considerable economic benefits and synergies with other activities in the region. Its close proximity to Sydney makes it attractive to a very wide market, including international visitors. The broad range of nature-based activities offered at the site also make it appealing for a variety of users and maximises opportunities that the site presents. Some uses are temporary (e.g. music festivals, "mud run" events, etc), whilst other uses are of a more permanent nature with some fixed structures. Different parts of the site are used for various activities (i.e. activities co-ordinated at the central complex) e.g. abseiling, horse riding, quad bike riding, kayaking. Overall use of the site, and what parts of it are used for which activity, is regulated by management. The land represents a significant holding of environmentally important land being relatively isolated, with limited access, and characterised by a cleared valley floor with vegetated hillsides and ridgelines. There are a number of discrete pockets of Endangered Ecological Communities (EEC) and regionally significant vegetation throughout the site. It is located between developed agricultural and resource lands situated along Peats Ridge and Popran National Park to the west.
