Australia.- Greyhound Racing NSW (GRNSW) has announced that work will begin on a new racetrack at Lithgow, marking a first step for an expansion and upgrades to its tracks and facilities.

Hon David Harris, NSW minister for Gaming and Racing, recently attended the Lithgow venue to announce the upgrade and turn the ceremonial first sod on the multi-million dollar project, which will be completed next year. He was joined by local member the Hon Paul Toole, Lithgow Mayor Cassandra Coleman, and chair of the Parliamentary Friends of Greyhounds, the Hon Mark Banasiak.

Harris said: “Today marks an exciting milestone for Lithgow and the greyhound racing industry in NSW. The commencement of these upgrades reflect our commitment to supporting the industry to deliver high-quality facilities while meeting modern standards and expectations for greyhound welfare and safety.”

He added: “This AU$3.2m investment for the Lithgow track will boost the local economy, create jobs and attract visitors, ensuring the sport thrives in a safe and sustainable way.”

Greyhound Racing NSW (GRNSW) chief executive officer Steve Griffin confirmed plans for a 10-dog straight track to be built concurrently with the Goulburn circle track upgrade, and a 10-dog straight track to be built in Tamworth. “This is just the latest step in what will be a revitalisation of the NSW greyhound industry. Some within and outside the sport have suggested that greyhound racing is in decline. Well, I’m here to tell you that’s the exact opposite. The sport is on an upward trajectory involving innovative changes to its wagering, an uplift to its clubs and a sustainable future,” he said.
