What's New

Sydney Park Junction from Princes Highway (1)

New Permanent cycleway for Sydney Park Road

Transport is replacing the temporary pop-up cycleway on Sydney Park Road with a new permanent two-way cycleway.

We will make the existing temporary pop-up cycleway on Sydney Park Road permanent, as part of the first stage of the Sydney Park Junction project. The cycleway will have a concrete median with breaks to separate bike riders from vehicles and people walking.

Transport is finalising the design for the remaining stages of the project, including the Mitchell Road cycleway connection.
