- Building a Better Bayswater
Share your thoughts on our future plan for Bayswater Activity Centre, which aims to meet community needs and aspirations until 2040. Learn more at the pop-up information sessions on 13 and 18 April.
The draft Bayswater Renewal Strategy has been developed to ensure the activity centre continues to be a thriving hub for community life and business well into the future. Feedback we receive from this phase of community engagement will help us to finalise the strategy.
Community engagement in 2020 and 2022, helped inform priorities and initiatives identified in the draft strategy. The draft strategy guides development to support population growth and housing needs, while protecting Bayswater’s distinctive character. In addition, it also aims to balance economic, social and environmental matters.
Key initiatives in the draft strategy include increase the number of people living in the centre, transforming Penguin Place and Macauley Place, and developing a night-time economy.
Come along to pop-up information sessions to learn more about our future plan for Bayswater Activity Centre. Our team will be available to help with any queries you have.

Saturday 13 April, 11am to 1pm, Penguin Place, Bayswater
