$3 million to start planning the Werrington Arterial Stage 2

The NSW Government has announced $3 million towards planning for the Werrington Arterial Stage 2 – a future connection between the Great Western Highway, Werrington and Marsden Park.

The funding announcement continues the commitment to improving infrastructure throughout western Sydney.

Since it was opened in 2017 Werrington Arterial Stage 1 has proven to be a valuable connection between the Great Western Highway and M4, creating better access to the M4 motorway and more reliable travel times for motorists.

Stage 2 would deliver a connection between the employment areas at St Marys and Marsden Park with the North West Growth Area, making it easier for people to get to and from work.

The $3 million funding is for a Strategic Business Case for the Werrington Arterial Stage 2.

It will provide the strategic design, economic assessment and early cost estimation to inform an investment decision on a Final Business Case.

The Federal Government has made a matching contribution towards the Strategic Business Case.
