M5 East<br />
New South Wales<br />
Since September 2011, the operations and<br />
maintenance of the M5 East Freeway<br />
(M5 East) in Sydney has been the responsibility<br />
of <strong>Services</strong> <strong>Division</strong> on behalf of Roads and<br />
Maritime <strong>Services</strong>.<br />
The M5 East is a four-lane freeway which is nine<br />
kilometres in length and includes twin 4 kilometre<br />
tunnels and a 550 metre tunnel under the Cooks<br />
River. It links the M5 Motorway at Beverly Hills with<br />
General Holmes Drive at Sydney Airport, on to the<br />
Eastern Distributor. This provides an important link<br />
for road-users from the south-western suburbs of<br />
Sydney to Port Botany, Sydney Airport, Sydney<br />
CBD and Sydney’s eastern and northern suburbs.<br />
Our team commenced full operations in<br />
December 2011. Under the contract, the <strong>Services</strong><br />
<strong>Division</strong> maintains and operates the overall<br />
management of the M5 East, improvement<br />
services, support for network operations,<br />
operational asset management and associated<br />
project management and 24-hour CCTV<br />
monitoring and incident response.
