NORTHERN ROAD UPGRADE – STAGE 4

Georgiou partnered with Ertech on the Northern Road Upgrade project, between Mersey Road, Bringelly and Eaton Road, Luddenham for Transport for New South Wales, valued at more than $120 million.

Spanning 5.7km, work in this section included:

• the diversion and widening of the Northern Road between Mersey Road and Eaton Road around the site of the Western Sydney Airport ;
• a left in/left out intersection at Dwyer Road;
• a u-turn controlled with traffic lights for access to the Leppington Pastoral Company;
• new traffic lights at the service entrance to Western Sydney Airport;
• new traffic lights at the T-intersection with the bypassed Northern Road (north of Eaton Road);
• a left in/left out intersection for Eaton Road (East);
• cyclist and pedestrian facilities; and
• related works including relocation of utilities.

Delivered as a 50:50 joint venture, the project is set to improve safety, increase road capacity and reduce future congestion and travel times.

The project was completed in mid-2021 with 120 personnel at peak.

The upgrade is a part of the Federal Government’s $3.6B Western Sydney Infrastructure Plan, and is needed to bypass the western airport site at Badgerys Creek.
