Council on opening George Street to McEvoy Street Waterloo - 24 June 2026
by REDWatch, last updated: Jun 26, 2026 11:23 AM
This is the City of Sydney written response to a REDWatch's request for information on Council's proposal to open up George Street Waterloo to left in left out at McEvoy Street. This proposal was referred to briefly in the Waterloo South Concept Plan where Stockland advised that nothing they were doing would prevent this option in the future. Council in its submission asked Stockland to progress this option rather than a closed street with a large turning circle. With a proposal also to close Raglan Street opposite the Metro to cars (in the process of being changed), REDWatch requested further information from Council about its proposal and the reasoning behind it. The REDWatch spokesperson was briefed by Council staff about the proposal but an invitation by REDWatch to Council to present to a REDWatch meeting in July did not give Council sufficient time to prepare and for REDWatch to promote a meeting. This Correspondence and Council's Waterloo South Concept submission contains the only public information available on this proposal in late June 2026. REDWatch is concerned that many will see this as a significant change to the Waterloo South proposal and that there should be an opportunity for the proposal to be explained to the community and for the community to have the opportunity to raise any concerns and have them considered.
What are the Waterloo South issues people should comment on?
by REDWatch, last updated: May 28, 2026 05:05 PM
The Waterloo South Concept Plan exhibition closes on 2nd June 2026. REDWatch has been asked by tenants about what the issues are they should be commenting upon. There is no easy answer. The exhibition time is much shorter than previously, and a lot else has been happening, so REDWatch has not been able to go through the documents in a way that we would normally like to do. This short timeframe also has impacted Council which has previously been able to complete its submission and also share its concerns with the community. Given these limitations below are some ideas you might like to look at for your submission if you have not put in anything yet.
