Dear Residents,

Council performs regular inspections of public assets to ensure they are safe and fit for purpose. Albyn Road, Strathfield was identified as needing priority repair work and as such the area from Cotswold Road to Homebush Road was recently updated with kerb, guttering and road reconstruction. This has improved safety and accessibility for all road users. You can find out about other road works on the Current Projects webpage.

In other news, you may have noticed some improvements being made at Strathfield Park. We look forward to the community enjoying the new BBQ areas,  fitness equipment, walking paths and more. The work is expected to be complete at the end of June 2026 (weather permitting). Find out more on the website.

This Saturday I’ll be at Strathfield Park and Chain of Ponds Reserve for my Mayoral Street Meetings! Come and say hello and let me know what’s on your mind. Then head over to Rochester Street Homebush for the Homebush Markets from 4pm. See you there! 

If you need to contact me or have any questions, please do so by emailing me cr.bcai@strathfield.nsw.gov.au or ring our office on 9748 9999.

 

Cr Benjamin Cai, Mayor of Strathfield
