Western Sydney Infrastructure Plan

Delivering for growth, easing congestion and connecting communities

March 2016

The Australian and NSW governments are funding a 10 year, $3.6 billion road investment program for western Sydney. The Western Sydney Infrastructure Plan will deliver major road infrastructure upgrades to support an integrated transport solution for the region and capitalise on the economic benefits from developing a planned western Sydney airport at Badgerys Creek.

The Plan provides improved road transport capacity ahead of future traffic demand, as planned residential and employment development takes place in the Western Sydney Priority Growth Area, South West Priority Land Release Area and the Western Sydney Employment Area. This work will transform the region’s economy and make western Sydney an even better place to live and do business.

Features• Upgrade of The Northern Road to a minimum of

four lanes between Narellan Road, Narellan and Jamison Road, South Penrith

• A new M12 Motorway with up to six lanes between the M7 Motorway at Cecil Hills and The Northern Road at Luddenham, connecting to the planned western Sydney airport site

• Upgrade of Bringelly Road to a minimum of four lanes between The Northern Road and Camden Valley Way

• Building the Werrington Arterial Road by upgrading Kent Road and Gipps Street to four lanes between the Great Western Highway and the M4 Motorway, including two new east facing ramps on the M4 Motorway

• Upgrading the intersection of Ross Street and the Great Western Highway, Glenbrook

• A $200 million Local Roads Package for councils to apply for local road upgrades (Australian Government funded).

Did you know? Western Sydney is Australia’s third largest economy and in its own right would be Australia’s fourth largest city. During the next 20 years, the region is expected to grow from two million to three million people, which is why the Australian and NSW governments are fast‑tracking the development of new, and upgrades to existing infrastructure.
