Planning began in 2000 for a commercial development in the area north of Sparks Road and east of the railway, termed Warnervale Town Centre.[2] Woolworths proposed to build a new shopping centre, and a railway station was planned.

New plans call for a scaled-down shopping centre, and there is no longer a plan to build a railway station.[3]
