Council will undertake vehicle mitigation improvements at Narellan Sports Hub in response to ongoing illegal parking across the site, which has created safety and access risks for people using the facility. 

Proposed Works 

The preferred approach being a combination of:

• Sandstone blocks; 
• Gates; and
• Tree planting (Funded by the Greening Our City Program).

The first stage of the project will involve the installation of sandstone blocks and gates across the identified priority areas. Installation is planned to commence on 1 and 2 October 2026. 

The second stage of the project will involve tree planting throughout the reserve. This is planned to be undertaken in early 2027 as part of the Greening Our City Program. The locations for tree planting will be confirmed at a later stage. 

Proposed locations of sandstone blocks and gates

Where: Springs Road and Burrell Road, Spring Farm
When: From 29 September 2026 (approximately 8 weeks duration, weather dependant)
What: Construction of a raised pedestrian crossing and associated site works

Traffic controllers will be on site to direct motorists. Council will endeavour to minimise impacts where possible, including through traffic control. Residents can expect minor delays.

The NSW Government has introduced a Statewide Community Participation Plan that provides consistent consultation requirements for Strategic Policies and Development Applications across NSW.

The Plan, which standardises consultation and public exhibition timeframes, came into effect on 1 September 2026.

The Plan sets mandatory exhibition periods for Strategic Policies (e.g. Local Environmental Plans), while Development Application for some ‘lower impact’ developments (e.g. two storey houses and dual occupancies) are no longer subject to public exhibition / community consultation.

Council wishes to advise that in response to concerns over trees showing signs of poor health in this area, Camden Council has undertaken some initial testing. A plant pathogen–Phytophthora spp. has been detected within the soil. To better understand the extent of the issue and to inform next steps, further investigations are being undertaken in consultation with experts.

Please help us to protect street trees, bushland areas and gardens, by:

•             Walking on formal pathways;

•             Always keeping pets on lead, and walking pets on formal pathways; and

•             NOT walking in planted/soil/mulched sections of median strips, garden beds, or bushland areas.

These simple actions will help reduce the risks associated with the plant pathogen.

Thank you for your patience and for helping us look after Camden’s trees.
