RURAL FIRE SERVICE RELOCATES

MOVES to have the NSW Rural Fire Service headquarters and jobs move to the Central West have been dashed with its relocation from nearby Lidcombe to Sydney Olympic Park.

GPT Group will develop a $100 million state-of-the-art office tower with the RFS taking up take up around 60 per cent of the space in the five-storey building.

Construction of the 15,680 square metres campus-style building is expected to start early next year and is due for completion in the second half of 2018.

Minister for Emergency Services, David Elliott, said the new location was convenient and meant about 300 jobs and investment would remain in Western Sydney.

“Sydney Olympic Park is where many of our athletes became national heroes, so it is only fitting that it will also become the home of more than 74,000 NSW RFS volunteers,” Mr Elliott said.

“This state-of-the-art new building allows for a modern workplace and a better capacity for things like behaviour modelling, public information and support of the service’s 74,000 volunteers,” Commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons said.

The current lease for the Lidcombe base expires in November 2018.
