Warriewood Community Centre

A quality multi-use facility for the community to enjoy

Project update - June 2025

Construction of the new Warriewood Community Centre is progressing well. Despite some recent weather delays, roofing is nearing completion, and work on external cladding, window framing and glazing is underway. Once the building is weather-tight, internal services and fitout will ramp up.

Below-ground services and landscaping preparation are continuing. The site office will soon be relocated to allow works on the western carpark to commence. We will ensure local residents and key stakeholders are informed in advance of any temporary access changes or traffic impacts associated with these works.

The project remains on track for completion in late 2025, subject to unforeseen delays.

What's happening?

We’re building a new multi-use community centre on the existing site of the Nelson Heather Centre on the corner of Jacksons Road and Pittwater Road.

The centre will be an attractive, modern, and resilient building with the capacity to switch to an Emergency and Recovery Centre during a period of community crisis.

Features of the new centre will include:

  • flexible multi-purpose halls to accommodate a variety of recreational, cultural and community activities
  • two versatile meeting rooms suitable for workshops, programs and small events
  • a dedicated community space designed to be safe, inclusive and accessible for all
  • generous covered outdoor areas overlooking landscaped gardens
  • modern, fully accessible amenities
  • multiple adaptable kitchen facilities to support events and group activities.

The design also incorporates best-practice sustainability principles and new infrastructure to meet the growing community.

In addition to the building works, we are progressing the design of a new shared pathway connecting the centre to the nearby B-Line bus stop. Planned upgrades to Boondah Road will further enhance safety and accessibility, making it easier for people to walk and cycle throughout the area.

Management of works

Learn how we are managing the works

Demolition of the former Nelson Heather Centre began in April 2024, with construction of the new Warriewood Community Centre commencing in May. This milestone was officially marked with a ground breaking ceremony held on 29 May 2024.

The project remains on track for completion in late 2025, subject to unforeseen delays.

Construction work hours are stipulated in the conditions of development approval and are generally allowed at the following times:

  • 7am to 5pm on Mondays to Fridays
  • 8am to 1pm on Saturdays

No work is allowed on Sundays or Public Holidays.

On occasion it may be necessary to allow out of hours work such as oversized trucks to make deliveries to site or emergency works.

Pedestrian access will remain available through the reserve and the existing footpaths will be maintained for public use. There will be no access through the construction site itself.

The sportsfields will remain open.


There may be an unavoidable increase in traffic in the area during weekdays.

Traffic management measures will be implemented to minimise disruption to the community.

We are upgrading Boondah Road between Spine Bill Drive and Jacksons Road in Warriewood. We will notify the community prior to any works commencing, as there may be temporary impacts on traffic and parking. Further details will be provided as they become available. Learn more.

To prepare for construction and ensure public safety, the contractor installed a temporary site fence around the work area in early April 2024. This fencing will remain in place for the duration of the build, restricting public access and parking within the construction zone until project completion.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

  • Has the amount of parking available changed?
  • How do we access the community centre?
  • Why was the site of the existing Nelson Heather Centre chosen?
  • What is the Warriewood Valley Development Contributions Plan?

Frequently asked questions

  • When can we hire a room?
  • Northern Beaches Council Community Arts and Culture will issue an Expression of Interest to existing and potential hirers in 2025. More details on the Fees & Charges and proposed Terms and Conditions will be available next year.

    In the meantime, you can look at some of our existing community centres and venues available for hire.

  • Has the amount of parking available changed?
  • The new community centre will provide a total of 5 halls and two meeting rooms with ancillary facilities and will be served by a total of 78 car parking spaces, 5 of which are allocated as accessible parking spaces.

    This is an increase from the existing 53 parking spaces serving the existing community centre. The gross floor area (GFA) of the existing centre is approximately 1,404 m2 which equates to a parking provision of one car parking space per 26 m2 GFA. The GFA of the new centre is approximately 1,947 m2 which equates to a parking provision of 1 parking space per 25 m2 GFA.

  • How do we access the community centre?
  • The car park is accessed from a driveway located 65m north of the Boondah and Jacksons Road intersection.

    A loading bay/ bus drop off point is provided to facilitate the dropping off or picking up of people attending the community centre in community buses.

    There are local bus stops in Jacksons Road and a B-Line stop adjacent in Pittwater Road.

    In addition to existing pedestrian routes and cycle paths, shared pedestrian/cycle pathways are planned for Boondah Road and across Boondah Reserve No 5 from the B Line bus stop.

    There are 10 bicycle parking spaces within the car park.

  • Why was the site of the existing Nelson Heather Centre chosen?
  • The existing Nelson Heather Centre is at capacity and requires upgrading to meet the needs of the growing community. The site forms the gateway to Warriewood Valley and is situated adjacent to the B-Line bus stop providing excellent access via public transport making it the most suitable choice for the new centre.

  • What is the Warriewood Valley Development Contributions Plan?
  • Warriewood Valley Contributions Plan Amendment 16 Revision 3 - August 2018 came into effect on 1 September 2018 and provides the levying of the development contributions that facilitate the delivery of infrastructure in/adjacent to the release area.
