Bandon Road Corridor Upgrade and Extension - Have Your Say on the REF and Concept Design

Consultation has concluded

Making it easier to move in and around the North West


The Australian and NSW Governments have committed a combined total of $150 million to progress the planning of the Bandon Road Corridor Upgrade and Extension and Early Works near Vineyard Station to support development in Sydney’s fast-growing North West.

Bandon Road Corridor is a new 6.5km road linking Windsor Road to Richmond Road through Marsden Park North, Riverstone West, Riverstone and Vineyard precincts.

The Bandon Road Upgrade will provide direct access to Richmond Road, improving connections to Marsden Park, creating an additional east-west link, and offering an alternative route that reduces the need to travel through Riverstone town centre.

It also proposes to upgrade and extend the existing Bandon Road to a four-lane divided road, including a new road underpass of the Richmond rail line and bridges across the Eastern Creek floodplain.

As part of the project, Safety Improvement Early Works commenced at the corner of Bandon Road and Riverstone Parade, adjacent to Vineyard Station on 28 April 2026. You can read our recent Community Update about the Early Works on our project webpage

The Bandon Road Corridor Upgrade and Extension will support future housing, employment areas and connect communities. It will reduce congestion, improve traffic flow, enhance road and rail safety, and provide additional shared cycling and walking paths, supporting growth and improving transport outcomes for the North West.

Key features of the project

  • a new four lane divided road including a central median to improve road safety and allow for future widening
  • an off-road shared path for pedestrians and cyclists
  • a new road underpass of the Richmond Rail Line north of Vineyard Train Station and removal of the existing Bandon Road level rail crossing
  • new intersections and a central median to improve road safety
  • three new bridges across Marsden Creek, Eastern Creek, and the existing Bandon Road to increase flood resilience
  • a new pedestrian bridge from Wallace Road to Riverstone Parade, providing access to Vineyard Station
  • changes to the local road network, including realignments and closures of sections of existing Bandon Road, Park, Farm, St James and Wallace Roads, O’Connell Street and Riverstone Parade
  • two floodplain storage areas that will be excavated to offset road embankments required for Bandon Road and Garfield Road West upgrades
  • an upgrade and realignment of the existing flood evacuation route on Wallace and Bandon Roads
  • a southern connection road that connects upgraded Bandon Road to Hamilton Street and Riverstone Parade, via Camberwell Road at Vineyard, providing an improved flood evacuation route to Hamilton Street and access to Vineyard Station

Have Your Say

The Review of Environmental Factors (REF) and the Concept Design for the Bandon Road Corridor Upgrade and Extension are now on public exhibition until Sunday 14 June 2026.

The REF outlines the key features and objectives of the proposal and examines how Transport proposes to manage the potential effects of the upgrades on the community and surrounding environment.

REF documents, simplified maps and artist’s impressions can be found on this feedback site. For a more detailed look at the design, please refer to the interactive map link provided on our project webpage

Have Your Say will be open from Monday 18 May and will close for comments at 5pm Sunday 14 June 2026.
