AirTrunk has confirmed it won’t go ahead with a data centre on Mars Road in Lane Cove West. It has also apologised to residents for months of roadworks disruption.
The company told In the Cove its early planning for the site has lapsed. There will be no environmental impact statement or community consultation. Once its approved Stage 5 build is finished, expected by the end of 2028, AirTrunk says it has no plans for more development in Lane Cove.
AirTrunk says it doesn’t own the Mars Road property. It also has no commercial arrangement with the owner or with Lane Cove Gymnastics, which has announced its closure.
On the roadworks, AirTrunk admitted the road restoration should have been fixed sooner. It is moving to a new contractor and says the work could take up to six to seven weeks.
