We are excited to open our Community Information Centre to the general public, located at 142 President Avenue, Brighton-Le-Sands.

We look forward to meeting you to discuss any questions you may have between 9.00am and 5.00pm, Monday to Friday. There is no need to book in advance, just drop in to speak to the M6 Stage 1 Community Team, look at maps, artist impressions and learn more about the Project.

During November 2022, we conducted our second Community Engagement Survey promoted through notifications and our Portal. Thank you to those who participated - your responses have helped us understand the best way to communicate with you and what information you are interested in. We will conduct our next Community Engagement Survey in May 2023. If you would like to be notified via email when the next survey is open, contact info@M6Stage1.com.au or visit our Portal nswroads.work/M6portal.

Tunnelling is continuing from our Arncliffe site on Marsh Street. Six roadheaders are now in operation along the tunnel alignment, with tunnelling activities to increase over the coming months.

West Botany St Depot site shaft is complete to 51m deep and the first road header for that site has started excavation, our second tunnelling site.

We are also progressing with the construction of our acoustic shed, projected to be completed in February 2023. The acoustic shed is being built over the tunnel shaft to provide noise mitigation from tunnelling activities.

Roadwork and utilities relocation activities are taking place on President Avenue, Princes Highway and West Botany Street to upgrade the road network.

We are continuing site establishment for the construction of the 5 kilometre shared pedestrian and cyclist pathway. We have progressed with site establishment and vegetation removal from Civic Avenue to Chuter Avenue through Scarborough Park in preparation for the construction of the pathway. When the shared pathways are constructed, we will provide new trees and vegetation to improve shading as well as visual amenity, enhancing the quality of the landscape along the pathway.
