The Australian Logistics Council submission to the NSW State Significant Development assessment for the Mamre Road Data Centre Campus argues the proposal is incompatible with the precinct’s designated freight and logistics role within the Western Sydney Employment Area. The site forms part of a strategically planned industrial corridor intended to support the future Western Sydney Intermodal Terminal and Freight Line, both critical to improving rail freight capacity and supply chain efficiency. ALC highlights that the development would permanently remove scarce, well-located industrial land required for intermodal co-location, which is essential to enabling rail mode shift, reducing road congestion, and improving freight productivity. It notes that the proposal would displace freight activity onto the road network, increasing costs, emissions, and congestion, while weakening system resilience. The submission further points to Sydney’s acute industrial land scarcity and stresses that conversion of this site would undermine long-term freight capacity and policy objectives. ALC recommends refusal, or alternatively strict conditions to preserve freight corridors and protect intermodal functionality.
