Merrylands CBD Infrastructure Upgrade

Illustration of capital worksThe Merrylands Infrastructure Upgrades consist of a series of storm water drainage infrastructure replacements, construction of new roads and other utility upgrades across Merrylands CBD.

This revitalisation project aims to transform Merrylands CBD into a modern and vibrant center through the creation of future development opportunities, improved infrastructure and public amenities. The stormwater upgrades will maximise the potential for future revitalisation within the location. It will also reduce existing and future flooding issues.

August 2024 update - Merrylands CBD works

Approvals for Endeavour Energy to relocate electrical services along the western side of Addlestone Road have been finalised and works are expected to commence end of September 2024.

It is estimated that Addlestone Road will be opened to southbound traffic early to mid-September 2024 (subject to weather). The western side of Addlestone Rd (i.e. northbound lane) will need to be closed for a period of time.

We anticipate this part of the works should be completed by December 2024 (subject to weather and unforeseen circumstances), which is when Addlestone Road will be permanently and fully opened to two-way traffic.

We will keep the community updated as work progresses and appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we deliver this important work.

July 2024 update - Merrylands CBD works

Due to the unprecedented wet weather we have been experiencing, works to complete the new stormwater infrastructure under Addlestone Rd near the intersection with Merrylands Road will be extended. It is now estimated that Addlestone Road will be opened to traffic by the end of August 2024 (subject to weather). There will be some instances after August 2024 when the western side of Addlestone Rd (i.e. North bound lane) will need to be closed for a period of time.

The works along western side of Addlestone Road will commence once necessary approvals from Endeavour Energy are in-place. We are waiting for Endeavour Energy to advise when the electrical relocation works can be done. We anticipate this part of the works should be completed by December 2024, which is when Addlestone Road will be permanently and fully opened to two-way traffic, but this depends on when we obtain Endeavour Energy approvals.

We will keep the community updated as work progresses and appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we deliver this important work.
