St Marys Central Park is an integral part of Council's vision to transform St Marys into a vibrant, welcoming and sustainable Town Centre.

We want to ensure St Marys is ready to make the most of the economic and social opportunities the Sydney Metro – Western Sydney Airport rail line will bring to the area.

The new park will be the civic green heart of St Marys, attracting residents and visitors into the Town Centre to meet, socialise, enjoy passive and active recreation, and enjoy events and performances.

It will help stimulate the local economy and create an important connection between Queen Street, Coachmans Park, Ripples, local shopping precincts, facilities, and infrastructure.

The design is currently in development, however a key feature of St Marys Central Park will be an entertainment area which will be used for people to enjoy local and regional talent.

The design will also include plenty of natural shade including trees and shrubs, a central lawn, public artwork, and play areas.

St Marys Central Park will attract residents and visitors into the Town Centre to stimulate the local economy.

The park will connect Queen Street to local shopping precincts, facilities, and infrastructure beyond the main street of town, encouraging people to explore more of St Marys.

People will be able to enjoy community events, meet up with friends, play with their kids, enjoy some exercise, or simply sit and enjoy nature in a cool, green space.

St Marys Central Park will be located on the corner of Queen Street and Charles Hackett Drive.

It will build an important connection to local shopping precincts, community facilities and growing infrastructure.

The site will be within walking distance from St Marys Train Station, which will become a true east-west and north-south rail corridor when it forms the starting point of the Sydney Metro - Western Sydney Airport rail line.

The existing site is known as Coachmans Park. While it has served the community, this space is due for an upgrade as more people move into the area.

Council will connect this site with Queen Street, through to South Creek, and transform it into the civic green heart of St Marys.

The $21 million St Marys Central Park project is funded through the NSW Government's Western Sydney Infrastructure Grants Program in partnership with Council.

In 2023, hundreds of residents and business owners shared their ideas for the St Marys Town Centre and Central Park as part of community consultation for the St Marys Town Centre Place Plan.

Council has listened to this feedback. Now we are working on a draft design concept for the new park that reflects the needs and desires of the community.

The draft design will be shared with the community for feedback later this year.
