The current infrastructure is inadequate for the existing population of North Richmond and surrounding areas.  Traffic congestion is a major problem which impacts on all residents west of the river as well as residents and businesses in Richmond due to the bank up of traffic in Richmond.    

North Richmond Districts Community Action Association and the community are therefore requesting that Hawkesbury City Council does not approve any further rezoning west of the river until the infrastructure has been upgraded significantly.  The community calls for action by the relevant authorities to improve the infrastructure NOW, not simply make promises for future improvements but implement actual upgrades to alleviate the existing problems. Until this time the area west of the river cannot sustain any further rezonings.
