Parramatta Road Urban Amenity Improvements (PRUAIP)
Project overview
The Parramatta Road Urban Amenity Improvement Program (PRUAIP) is a $198 million initiative by the NSW Government to improve open space and active transport links along the Parramatta Road corridor.
The program brings state agencies and local councils together to collaborate on projects that will improve public amenity.
We are collaborating with Strathfield Council to deliver improvements along Parramatta Road, Homebush as part of this program.
Key features
- upgrading pedestrian footpaths
- building out kerbs on Powell Street and Station Street, reducing the distance for pedestrians to cross the road
- four improved active transport connections including installation of new signalised crossings.
- removal of bus shelters at discontinued stops on Parramatta Road near Bridge Road and Park Road
- upgrading existing pedestrian crossings with compliant kerb ramps for safety
- improved landscaping including planting of trees along this section of Parramatta Road
- a new pocket park on the corner of Park Street and Parramatta Road, enhancing public amenity with new landscaping and seating areas.
Project updates
Community consultation was carried out between 23 August and 13 September 2023.
Transport have reviewed feedback and prepared a Consultation Report (PDF, 1.66 MB), which summarises the feedback received.
Stage 1:
Transport will install a new staggered traffic light crossing for pedestrians and cyclists at the intersection of Parramatta Road and the M4 westbound on-ramp at Homebush. This will include:
- a staggered signalised pedestrian crossing
