Borella Road and Riverina Highway Corridor Strategy
Provides a long-term strategy for the corridor between the Hume Highway and Kerr Road.
Following three stages of community engagement, this Corridor Strategy has been adopted by Council. It provides a long-term plan for the corridor between the Hume Highway and Kerr Road.
The Strategy provides an integrated land use and transport plan that supports the long-term growth of this regionally significant corridor. As Borella Road and Riverina Highway is a State Highway, controlled by Transport for NSW, we will use the Corridor Strategy as an advocacy document and to seek funding for major road and intersection works. It will also be used to inform our strategic planning processes and capital works program.
The Corridor Strategy outlines a number of proposed improvements to the road corridor, key intersections and adjoining land uses. These seek to:
- respond to key issues raised consultation;
- improve safety and function;
- accommodate additional capacity (noting traffic modelling estimates volumes to double over the next 40 years);
- improve connectivity;
- enhance pedestrian and cycle access; and
- support key regional sites like the airport and hospital.
