Richmond Road intersection with Knox Road and Quakers Parkway improvements
Project overview
Transport for NSW will extend right turn bays at the intersection of Richmond Road, Knox Road and Quakers Hill Parkway, Quakers Hill to reduce traffic congestion and improve travel time for road users.
This work will reduce the likelihood of vehicles queuing out of the right turn bays and impacting the traffic flow on Richmond Road and Knox Road.
The project is being delivered as part of the Network Efficiency Program, which aims to improve reliability and efficiency across the Sydney road network.
Project information
Key features
The project will:
- extend the right turn bay from Richmond Road onto Knox Road from 80 metres to 265 metres
- extend the right turn bay from Richmond Road onto Quakers Hill Parkway from 85 metres to 195 metres
- extend the right turn bay from Knox Road onto Richmond Road from 40 metres to 90 metres.
Benefits
The improvements will:
- improve travel time by reducing overflow of traffic in the right hand turning lanes
- improve safety and efficiency for general traffic and heavy vehicles by increasing the length of the right-hand turning lanes.
Why are we not building a left turn slip lane from Knox Road into Richmond Road westbound?
Construction of a left turn slip lane at this location would require part of the Western Sydney Parklands to be reclaimed, adding time, complexity and cost to the project. To avoid delay for the remainder of the works, a potential left turn slip lane will be investigated and considered as part of a future project subject to prioritisation.
When will we be working
We will be working at the intersection of Richmond Road, Knox Road and Quakers Hill Parkway from Sunday 9 November 2025 until late March 2026.
There will be a pause in work between Friday 19 December 2025 and Sunday 4 January 2026.
Working hours are 8pm to 5am, Sunday to Thursday. No work will take place on Friday or Saturday nights or on public holidays, weather permitting.
