Project description

The project included upgrading 10km of Bringelly Road from two lanes to a six lane divided road between the eastern side of the Upper Canal bridge and Eastwood Road, through the future Leppington Town Centre.

The remainder has been upgraded from a two-lane to a four-lane divided road with a wide central median to allow for widening to six-lanes, when required in the future. The upgrade was undertaken in two stages to minimise disruptions to traffic. The first stage upgraded the 5.7km section east of King Street to Camden Valley Way and the second stage upgraded the 4.3km section from King Street to The Northern Road.

Benefits

The Bringelly Road upgrade, as part of the Western Sydney Infrastructure Plan, will provide better road linkages within the Western Sydney region and benefit the region's growing population, including through reducing commuting times.

Funding

The total cost of the project is $509 million. The Australian Government provided $407 million and the NSW Government provided $102 million towards the construction of this project.

Timetable

Stage 1 of the upgrade, between Camden Valley Highway and King Street, opened to traffic in December 2018. Stage 2 of the upgrade, between King Street to The Northern Road, of the project opened to traffic in December 2020. The entire project is now completed.
