Blacktown launches $600M build blitz with open call to contractors

Blacktown launches $600M build blitz with open call to contractors

Blacktown City Council is seeking contractors to help deliver more than $600 million in civic and community infrastructure over the next five years, with a formal request for tender (RFT) now open.

The tender – Contract C9/2025 – will establish a panel of Tier 1, Tier 2 and specialist construction partners to carry out a major pipeline of projects across the city.

Mayor of Blacktown City Brad Bunting said the program represents one of the most ambitious and well-prepared civic infrastructure agendas in Australia.

“This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future of one of the fastest-growing cities in the country,” said Bunting.

“Blacktown City has already delivered more than $250 million in major projects, and this program takes that to the next level. With more than $600 million in projects on offer, we’re looking for partners who want to build with confidence and purpose.

“This is about more than concrete and steel. It’s about delivering lasting value for communities, for workers, and for the future of Western Sydney.”

The program includes seven projects funded through the NSW Government’s Western Sydney Infrastructure Grants Program.

Projects to be delivered include:

  • A new PCYC and community hub at Mount Druitt
  • The revitalisation of Mount Druitt Town Centre’s public domain
  • Renewed aquatic centres at Blacktown and Mount Druitt
  • A First Nations Cultural Hub
  • The Seven Hills Community Resource Hub
  • An upgraded Blacktown Arts Centre
  • A new civic centre in the Blacktown CBD (pending council decisions)
  • A new civic office at Rooty Hill (pending council decisions)

“Council has already delivered more than $250 million in major infrastructure over recent years, including award-winning facilities like the Blacktown Exercise and Sports Technology Hub and the Warrick Lane precinct,” said Bunting. “This next phase is about partnering with experienced contractors which share our commitment to design integrity, construction quality and community value.”

The RFT will close at 3pm on Wednesday 18 June 2025.
