Penrith residents and regular users of Dunheved Road can look forward to more efficient, reliable and safer journeys with construction of the Dunheved Road Upgrade to start in early 2025.

The upgrade will see the heavily congested 4-kilometre route between Richmond Road and the Werrington Road/Christie Street roundabout upgraded from a two-lane undivided road to a median separated, four-lane carriageway with a shared user path.There will be three new signalised intersections, three new roundabouts, and upgrades to existing intersections.

The project has been through several changes and refinements with community, stakeholder and technical input. The final design for the upgrade addresses the current congestion, traffic and safety issues on Dunheved Road and will ensure the road can cater for future traffic demands.
