One of Kellyville’s busiest intersections will open to six lanes on Tuesday 30 April, weather permitting, expanding traffic capacity and improving travel times for motorists on Old Windsor Road at Memorial Avenue.
New lanes mark the completion of major work on Old Windsor Road as part of the $224 million Memorial Avenue upgrade.
Ongoing work at the intersection will include concreting, asphalting, and landscaping, along with the construction of concrete kerbs and shared footpaths.
The Memorial Avenue upgrade is powering ahead, with Stage 1 officially complete and Stage 2 on the way.
A 2.2 kilometre-long section of Memorial Avenue is being upgraded to a four-lane road between Old Windsor Road to the west and Windsor Road to the east to reduce travel times and congestion.
Stage 2 will see the new section of Memorial Avenue built opposite the already completed Stage 1.
The wide central median will then be landscaped, and traffic will be realigned to provide two lanes in each direction.
Quotes attributed to Labor Spokesperson for Kellyville, Peter Primrose MLC:
“It’s great to see new lanes open at the intersection of Old Windsor Road, which will help improve traffic flow and save motorists time.”
“The Memorial Avenue upgrade is well on the way, and once complete, will be a game-changer for our growing community.”
“This upgrade will help to manage current traffic as well as allow for the expected increases in traffic with residential and commercial development in the area.”
