Mandalong Road Upgrade

What’s this about?

The Australian and NSW governments are investing in upgrades to Mandalong Road between the M1 Pacific Motorway and Ourimbah Street.

During peak periods, motorists experience congestion and slow travel times on Mandalong Road. Planned residential, retail, industrial and commercial growth across Morisset and its surrounds will put further pressure on the road network.

Transport for NSW has investigated upgrade options along this section to improve traffic flow and safety for all users, while helping meet the future needs of an increased population and employment in the Morisset area. 

A preferred design has been developed for the proposed upgrade, which includes replacing the existing roundabout with new traffic lights at the Wyee Road / Freemans Drive intersection.

 The upgrade includes additional through lanes and additional turning lanes on all approaches. Active and public transport improvements would also be included as part of the upgrade. 

In addition, the existing dual lane roundabout at the Gimberts Road / Gateway Boulevard intersection is proposed to be upgraded. The scope of work for this upgrade will continue to be developed in consultation with Lake Macquarie City Council with consideration of adjacent developments.
