City of Parramatta Lord Mayor Cr Bob Dwyer has backed the Council’s plan to create a town square in the heart of Granville, while assuring residents that the town’s parking spaces will not be lost in the process.
The masterplan proposes a large town square with trees and public seating in the area bounded by the train line, Parramatta Road, Bold Street and Duck Creek.
Dwyer says the project is a reflection of community consultation, which specifically requested more greener spaces within the Western Sydney region. Council has developed this masterplan in consultation with the local community and more than 90 percent of respondents told us they want more green, multipurpose open spaces, he says.

Roadside memorial in honour of Oatlands crash victims repaired 01/06/2021|1min
A roadside memorial in honour of four children who were killed in Oatlands has been repaired after it was vandalised over the weekend.
The makeshift shrine, which contained images of the Abdallah siblings - Antony, Angelina, and Sienna - and their cousin Veronique Sakr, was erected in the wake of their deaths in February last year.
It comes as Oatlands Golf Club faces public backlash after the board rejected proposals from Parramatta City Council to establish a permanent memorial which would encroach on the grounds of the golf course.
