Outer Sydney Orbital Stage 1

Reviewed

The Western Sydney International Airport (WSIA) Precinct will develop into a thriving area of homes, parklands and light industry over the next two decades. The Outer Sydney Orbital Stage 1 (OSO1) corridor will service this development by providing a major transport link between Sydney’s north-west and south-west, connecting with the new airport, an “Agribusiness” precinct and future employment areas.

OSO1 is located between Marsden Park in the north and the Hume Motorway near Menangle in the south. In June 2018, Transport for NSW consulted with the community on a recommended land corridor for OSO1. 
 
The corridor enables Transport to deliver a future motorway connection, a dedicated freight rail line, and could also cater to future transport technology advances.  

The OSO1 corridor will protect land in a rapidly growing Western Sydney, so it is available when the infrastructure is needed. 

More about the OSO1 - community consultation

A public consultation was held in 2018, which contributed to investigations for the future corridor. 

The corridor is noted as being “Under consideration” in the State Environmental Planning Policy (Western Sydney Aerotropolis). 

Key benefits

  • Convenient future transport connections for growing communities, businesses and new jobs in Western Sydney
  • Safe and efficient freight truck and freight rail transportation of everyday goods
  • Certainty for land use planners to plan around future infrastructure
  • Certainty for current and potential communities who want to plan for their future.

What’s happening now

We are working towards gazettal of the OSO1 corridor.

Next steps

We will share updates as they become available.

Acquisitions

There is no need for Transport to acquire land until close to the time the transport infrastructure is required. In the meantime, landowners can continue to live on and use their land. For more information on property acquisition, see Property Acquisitions on the Corridors home page.
