Motorway
MARCH 2015
How to make a submission fact sheet
The proposed M4 Smart Motorway will introduce a smarter way of travelling the
M4 by using real-time information, communication and traffic management tools
to provide motorists with a safer, smoother and more reliable journey.
Review of Environmental Factors
The Australian and NSW governments are proposing
to introduce intelligent technology, known as a Smart
Motorway system, to Sydney’s M4 Motorway between
Pitt Street, Mays Hill and Lapstone. The proposed
concept design and Review of Environmental Factors

Friday 10 April 2015.
The REF assesses the potential environmental, economic
and social impacts of the proposal and recommends
measures to minimise the potential impacts.
