A $139 million warehousing estate that will create more than 600 jobs within the booming Western Sydney Aerotropolis has been given the green light.

The 50 acre estate has been approved as a State Significant Development with construction to start in the next few weeks.

The first warehouse is expected to open in December 2026. 

A diverse range of warehousing options will be on offer, from around 1,000 square metres up to 30,000 square metres, with a total of more than 63,500 square metres of floor area spread across seven buildings.

In addition to the warehousing use, the development also proposes an onsite café, ancillary office spaces, an estate road network, two landscaped open space areas, stormwater management works, signage, waterway rehabilitation, car parking and infrastructure installation, as well as estate wide landscaping.

The development is one of the first in the Aerotropolis and would support its growth by providing crucial logistics and warehousing space.

The Barings Luddenham Industrial Park will create 250 ongoing roles and 390 construction jobs close to the new Western Sydney International Airport due to open in 2026.

The approval follows the recent go ahead for Bradfield City’s Central Park and the opening of the first building.

The NSW Government has invested more than $1 billion to kickstart Bradfield City Centre, providing the early commercial buildings, infrastructure, and services needed to unlock billions in private development that will create more than 10,000 new homes and 20,000 new jobs.

There are also currently $14 billion worth of private development applications in the pipeline for the whole aerotropolis that would create 120,000 jobs.
