ABOUT WILTON
Wilton is set to grow over the next 30 years, with a diverse range of housing choice expected across the growth area. The area will transition from the current rural landscape to more vibrant and urban environment with playing fields, active transport and green spaces.
The new homes will be supported by a town centre and a series of local centres for local shopping and to provide local job opportunities. Wilton is set amongst the Cumberland Plain which is important vegetation for our koalas and water catchment. This provides a unique and inviting backdrop for the area.

Life in Wilton
The area has an existing local primary school in Bingara Gorge, and schools are planned in South East Wilton, North Wilton and Wilton Town Centre Precinct. Council is encouraging developers to design neighbourhoods that encourage children to ride or walk to school, with local park networks that will enhance the overall quality of life for residents.
Services, facilities, and shops will be clustered in centres ranging from small to large scale, with the key strategic centre of the Shire being Wilton Town Centre. Wilton Town Centre is expected to support Shire wide recreation facilities, contain a branch library and community centre. These services will be staged over the life of Wilton.
Together we hope to build a strong, diverse and inclusive community with opportunities to work, play and stay local.
