New M5 West Connex
- Completions/Commissioning
The New M5 will include twin nine-kilometre-long tunnels, running from Kingsgrove to a new St Peters Interchange at the site of the old Alexandria landfill facility. The St Peters Interchange will provide motorists with connections to Alexandria and Mascot.
It also includes connections to the planned Sydney Gateway and M4-M5 Link. The New M5 tunnels will be marked for two lanes in each direction, with capacity to add a third. It will also include underground connection points for the M4-M5 Link and the proposed F6 Extension.
Local streets and intersections around the St Peters interchange are also being upgraded to ensure safe and efficient connections for the New M5.
