  • Stage 2 Sector 2: Appin Road and Picton Road corridors
  • Stage 2 Sector 3: connections in the Illawarra including a potential new Illawarra escarpment crossing.

History [ edit ]

As part of economic development of Western Sydney, including the construction of the Western Sydney Airport at Badgerys Creek , The Northern Road was proposed to be upgraded to a grade separated motorway. The proposal, then known as the M9 Outer-Western Sydney Orbital motorway, would link the M31 Hume Motorway at Menangle with the Central Coast via Camden , Penrith and Windsor . [7]

As part of the State Budget 2014?15, the NSW Government announced a $5.5 billion road package for Western Sydney. It includes $4.6 million for planning the M9 Motorway. The preferred corridor for the motorway was expected to be announced later in 2014 before plans are made for reserving land. [8]

The Outer Sydney Orbital was split into a few stages for separate corridor identification:

In June 2018, it was announced that the Stage 1 orbital will consist of a 10 km tunnel between Cobbitty to Cawdor , and the number of properties to be acquired will drop from 1,247 to 825, with the number of homes affected down to 200, to the relief of the community. [9] The orbital was originally planned to cut through the town of Cobbitty. The northern end of the orbital was also truncated from Box Hill to Richmond Road at Marsden Park. [1]

Community consultation for the Stage 2 corridor was undertaken between November 2020 and January 2021. [2] In August 2021, the preferred corridor for Stage 2 from Hume Motorway and Appin Road was confirmed. [10]
