ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Australia is in the grips of a massive housing crisis, yet right across Outer Western Sydney, over 5,500 hectares of land sit completely idle—simply because they lack basic pipes, power, and access roads. Set to absorb nearly 40% of NSW’s future growth, the region is facing a critical national disconnect: population targets blowing past local infrastructure.
Brent is joined by Penrith Mayor and Chair of the Outer Western Sydney Alliance, Todd Carney, joins us to break down how unlocking basic enabling infrastructure can deliver 120,000 new homes, 95,000 local jobs, and a $142 billion economic boost—and why governments must stop putting the housing cart before the infrastructure horse.
