Under the proposal, up to 1500 new apartments could be built across eight mixed-use towers – some up to 39 storeys high – transforming the Brookvale precinct into a new and exciting urban and residential centre.
Mr Griffin said the Northern Beaches needs more housing, but growth must be sensible, well-planned, and supported by investment in schools, health services, and public transport.
“Increasing the supply of homes on the Northern Beaches must be a priority, but this level of development cannot be responsibly delivered without a clear plan for how people will move around, access schools, and receive essential health and community services. To increase density without the infrastructure to support it is not good planning – it’s short-sighted,” said Mr Griffin.
Mr Griffin emphasised the need for the Government to invest in the local bus services as a matter of urgency to accommodate these density changes.
“Dee Why, Brookvale and surrounding areas are already under significant transport pressure, with the B-Line at capacity, limited road access, and no commitment from the Government to deliver the long-promised comprehensive transport plan for the Northern Beaches which I, and other Northern Beaches MPs have repeatedly called for.”
Mr Griffin said the scale of the Warringah Mall proposal highlights the urgent need for the NSW Government to release the long-overdue Review of the Northern Beaches Road Network, which was promised following the cancellation of the Beaches Link Tunnel and remains yet to be published.
“Our community deserves transparency, proper planning, and a clear vision for sustainable growth. I will continue to hold the Minns Labor Government to account to ensure that developments such as the one proposed at Warringah Mall are supported by the transport, education, and health infrastructure required to sustain a growing population on the Northern Beaches,” said Mr Griffin.
