<strong>The</strong> work was announced<br />

on Monday<br />

by Ryde MP Victor<br />

Dominello who said it<br />

is being delivered as<br />

part of the NSW Government’s<br />

commitment<br />

to reduce congestion<br />

and improve travel<br />

times on one of Sydney’s<br />

busiest road corridors.<br />

Mr Dominello said the<br />

work aims to improve<br />

traffic flow for the<br />

thousands of motorists<br />

who travel through the<br />

intersection each day.<br />

“Work will be carried<br />

out to create dual right<br />

turn lanes on Blaxland<br />

Road for motorists<br />

turning onto First Avenue<br />

and extending the<br />

left turn lane on First<br />

Avenue by 100 metres<br />

to create more capacity<br />

for motorists and<br />

reduce the chance of<br />

rear end crashes,” he<br />

said.<br />

“Medians at the intersection<br />

will also be<br />

modified to accommodate<br />

the intersection<br />

improvements.”<br />

Mr Dominello said<br />

work will be carried out<br />

from <strong>January</strong> 21 and is<br />

expected to be completed<br />

by the end of<br />

November.<br />

“Improving the intersection<br />

at Blaxland<br />

Road and First Avenue<br />

will help take the<br />

squeeze out of one<br />

of the biggest pinch<br />

points in Sydney’s<br />

north west.”<br />

Work will be carried<br />

out between 7am and<br />

6pm on weekdays as<br />

well as between 8am<br />

and 1pm on Saturdays,<br />

weather permitting.<br />

Night work will be<br />

carried out from 6pm<br />

to 7am from Sunday<br />

to Friday for up to five<br />

nights per week.<br />

“Roads and Maritime<br />

Services will keep the<br />

community informed<br />

as work progresses<br />

on this project,” Mr<br />

Dominello said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> NSW Government<br />

is committed to<br />

improving safety and<br />

easing congestion<br />

on all roads and this<br />

project is just another<br />

piece of the puzzle<br />

which will benefit motorists<br />

and the community<br />

for years to<br />

come.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> intersection of<br />

Blaxland Road and<br />

First Avenue is one of<br />

the busiest in north<br />

west Sydney, with<br />

more than 3,500 vehicles<br />

using the intersection<br />

in the morning and<br />

afternoon peaks.”<br />

Motorists are advised<br />

to drive to the changed<br />

conditions and follow<br />

the direction of traffic<br />

control and signs.<br />

Roads and Maritime<br />

thanks the community<br />

for its patience while<br />

work is carried out.<br />

Ryde MP Victor Dominello was at the intersection of Blaxland Road and First Avenue<br />

in Eastwood on Monday where he revealed a plan to cut traffic congestion.<br />
