Reviewed

Project overview

Transport for NSW invited feedback in March and April 2020 on proposed traffic improvements on Wentworth Avenue between General Holmes Drive, Mascot and Bunnerong Road, Eastgardens.

Project information

Background

We received some feedback from the community, and have summarised all feedback and responses in an engagement report which we encourage you to view at November 2020 Engagement Report (PDF, 1.9Mb).

After considering all responses we have decided to proceed with the proposed traffic improvements on Wentworth Avenue.

Transport would like to thank everyone who provided feedback.

Traffic improvements at Baker Street

The Australian Government and NSW Government are jointly funding the Baker Street traffic improvements. Transport will deliver the improvement works at Baker Street designed by Bayside Council (see inset below).

The Baker Street intersection improvements are part of a $240 million investment by the Australian and NSW Governments to fast-track 11 congestion busting projects as part of the plan to stimulate the economy as it recovers from COVID-19.

Transport will continue to work with Bayside Council to deliver this project.

The new and extended clearways on Wentworth Avenue will be operational from 6am Monday 14 December 2020.
