Further to our post last year listing the proposed changes for the Narellan Road upgrade, The RMS have released a graphic with all the proposed changes.
The first was the install an extra lane for the southbound off ramp. I think all users of the road will agree that this has not made one iota of difference to the daily traffic queues waiting to get off the hume highway. I personally do not waiting for a short time in traffic, but many days I find myself waiting to get slammed in the rear by a car driven by someone who can’t be bothered queueing up like everyone else. Every day I see near misses and it isonly a matter of time before a another tragedy occurs there.
As you can see from the graphic below, stage A involves changes to the east of the hume highway, the most notable being the installation of traffic lights at the intersection of the off ramp and Narellan Road.
Stage B’s highlights include the widening of Narellan Road (Eastbound) to be 4 lanes. As reported last year, there are also lights due tobe installed at Kenny Hill. Why that is I’m still trying to understand. If you know why, please leave a comment below.
For the full map, please visit the RMS site here. The RMS page for the all the details of the upgrade project can be found HERE. It look as if the project is still in the design phase with no dates listed for when the work will be started. Interestingly, the submissions report only received 44 responses from the community and stakeholders. I think it’s important for everyone to voice their opinions – after all we use the road each and everyday.
As any other news on the upgrade project come to light, we will post here accordingly.
