Project information

Background

During morning and afternoon peak periods, the right turn lane from the Hume Highway into Miller Road queues into the through lanes, which delays westbound vehicles.

Benefits

The aim of the project was:

  • Improve travel times for the Hume Highway
  • Reduce delays and queue lengths on the Hume Highway
  • Improve safety at the intersection.

Key features

  • Widening the Hume Highway on the southern side to provide the extra right turn lane into Miller Road
  • Extending to a 125 metre merge lane along Miller Road to allow entry for the extra right turn lane
  • Relocating the existing bus stop northbound on Miller Road to 50 metres north of its present location
  • Removing 16 trees and replace at a nearby location in collaboration with Bankstown Council and Remembrance Driveway Committee
  • Removing 12 parking spaces on Miller Road.
