Blackett taxi maxi cab services Sydney

Blackett is a locality in the city of Sydney, which is located in the state of New South Wales in Australia. The City of Blacktown is responsible for the administration of Blackett, which is located in the Greater Western Sydney region and is situated 48 kilometres to the west of the Sydney Central Business District.

The settlement of Blackett was named after George Forster Blackett, who served as the Superintendent of the Government Cattle Station at Rooty Hill from 1820 to 1830.

The majority of the buildings in Blackett are residential, and there is hardly any commercial activity here. It only has a small shopping centre with a bakery, a take-away shop, and a combined liquor store and general store that primarily serves locals of Pacific Islander descent as its customers. Additionally, it has a combined service station and general store. It is in close proximity to the suburban areas of Mount Druitt and St. Marys, both of which are considered by the majority of the natives to be more business-oriented (having shopping centers, banking facilities and railway stations). Emerton and Plumpton are two more neighbouring suburbs that also contain commercial centres but do not have access to a train station.

On the day of the 2016 Census, the most common modes of transportation for those who had jobs were driving their own cars (61.3%), followed by public transportation (10.4%).

Blackett is located close to the Westlink M7 highway, which provides extremely simple access to the Great Western Highway and the M4 highway. This provides access from the east side of the city to the western parts of the city as well as the central business district of Sydney. This neighbourhood is connected to the Mount Druitt and St. Marys train stations by a number of different private bus companies.
