Council on 17 December 2002 adopted the Masterplan for the development of the land known as the Glenfield Road Urban Release Area, Glenfield Road, Glenfield.
The road naming theme used for this release area was “Names of New South Wales Convict Ships”. Council proposes to use names from this theme for new roads in the Glenfield Road Urban Release Area.
Some names of renowned New South Wales Convict Ships that were previously used include Mary Ann (England), Grenada (England) and Batavia (England). Names proposed for new roads in the Glenfield Road Urban Release Area include the following:
