Project information

Project background

We are upgrading the Lane Cove Road and Waterloo Road intersection. We will:

extend the left turn lane from Waterloo Road
eastbound onto Lane Cove Road
create a dedicated bus only right turn lane from Waterloo Road south onto Lane Cove Road
reconfigure Waterloo Road at the intersection to provide southbound two right turn lanes from Waterloo Road onto Lane Cove road - this is in addition to the existing bus only right turn lane
extend the northbound left hand turn slip lane from Lane Cove Road onto Waterloo Road
create an additional westbound through lane on Waterloo Road.

The Lane Cove Road and Waterloo Road intersection upgrades is one of a suite of projects, which form part of the stimulus package announced by the Federal Government on 29 June 2020. This package aims to help support economic growth and jobs creation in the post COVID-19.

This work was originally included in Stage 2 of the Macquarie Park Bus Priority and Capacity Improvements.
