WestConnex acknowledges the Traditional owners of Country throughout
Australia and recognises the continuing connection to the lands, waters and communities. We pay our respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and to elders both past and present.
Connecting Sydney
WestConnex is Australia’s largest road infrastructure project and central to our vision to better connect people and businesses across New South Wales. WestConnex is helping motorists move around Sydney safer, easier and faster, while delivering a major economic boost by creating thousands of jobs. Customers are experiencing significant travel time savings on the M4, M8 and M5 East. The M4 has led to travel time savings of up to 56 minutes, and with one third of traffic taken off Parramatta Road, local air quality has improved by 10–15%. The M8 provides travel time savings of up to 30 minutes between Liverpool and Sydney’s southern CBD, and has significantly improved the M5 East, with traffic moving 60% faster and 40% less crashes. The full benefits of WestConnex are yet to come, with the completion of the ‘missing link’ the M4-M5 Tunnels and Rozelle Interchange. WestConnex is not just about roads, it is delivering 18 hectares of open space for the community, more than a million trees, shrubs and plants, as well as 23 kilometres of new and improved shared paths for local neighbourhoods to enjoy. We are excited to be delivering this once in a generation project for the city we love, and look forward to Sydneysiders benefitting for decades to come.
