SYDNEY MOTORWAY CORPORATION
108 brief of investing and financing major road projects – in particular the new company was commissioned by the NSW Roads and Maritime Services to deliver and finance WestConnex . As Australia ’ s largest transport infrastructure project , the A $ 16.8bn WestConnex project will play a crucial role in supporting the city ’ s expected population growth and will get Sydney moving again .
WestConnex will be the central spine of Sydney ’ s motorway network , providing a long overdue underground link between the M4 and M5 , creating a seamless motorway without traffic lights .
At around 30km in length , WestConnex comprises six projects : the M4 Widening ( completed 2017 ); the M4 East ( opening 2019 ); the upgrade of the King Georges Road Interchange ( opened December 2017 ); the New M5 ( open to traffic in early 2020 ) and the M4-M5 Link which will be delivered in two stages , the mainline tunnels and the Rozelle Interchange and Iron Cove Link , with the entire scheme completed in 2023 .
WestConnex is a critical part of Sydney ’ s integrated transport solutions to tackle congestion
