Why do we have to wait for infrastructure to be built before a permit can be issued?

In some cases, the capacity of existing infrastructure is already exceeded due to existing development in the surrounding area. This means there is no capacity to accommodate any new development.

Therefore, additional measures are required to control – and possibly prohibit – development within the PSP area until there is certainty of delivery of new infrastructure. For example, opening a new freeway interchange.

It is not acceptable to create new allotments if they cannot be provided with safe and sufficient movement and access to their new community.

Timing new development appropriately with delivering essential infrastructure results in better planning and community outcomes.
