Project information

Background

The Linden Street corridor is a key east-west connection between Bangor Bypass and Princes Highway. It is used by around 6,000 motorists and 500 bus passengers an hour in peak periods and is crucial to keeping people moving around the Sutherland Shire and Greater Sydney.

To help get you where you need to be, Transport for NSW has upgraded three intersections along the corridor. These are:

  • River Road and Linden Street
  • Linden Street and Leonay Street
  • Linden Street and The Grand Parade.

Benefits

  • Saving up to eight minutes on a daily return journey in busy periods between Menai and Sutherland.
  • Getting traffic moving on this critical corridor by reducing congestion and improving traffic flow at this pinch point.
  • Improving safety for road users.
