Map | Homebush Bay Drive and Australia Avenue upgrade

Making travel safer, more connected and easier for everyone

The intersection is currently configured as a roundabout and is one of Sydney’s busiest intersections with around 4500 vehicles using the intersection per hour during peak periods. Transport for NSW proposes replacing the roundabout to a traffic light intersection with more lanes to unlock vital road capacity and keep the increasing number of vehicles who use the intersection every day moving quickly, safely and efficiently.
