Spring Farm Parkway Stage 2 is funded for planning only

Spring Farm Parkway Stage 2 would be a 3 km four-lane divided road running west from Stage 1 to Liz Kernohan Drive, tying together the Camden Bypass, the Hume Motorway and Menangle Road. Where it stands is simple: only the planning is funded.

The Review of Environmental Factors and the proposed design are on public display now, and feedback closes 11:59pm on Sunday 27 September 2026. Feedback lodged in that window goes on the record before a design is settled. Three ways in, all from Transport for NSW’s project page: the Have Your Say webpage, email to springfarmparkway2@transport.nsw.gov.au, or post to Spring Farm Parkway Stage 2, 4 Parramatta Square, 12 Darcy Street, Parramatta NSW 2150. The infoline is 1800 325 146. What is in the report — the Hume ramps question in particular — is in the environmental report.

Construction is still unfunded. The display is of a design, not of a project with a start date.

What the source says

Transport for NSW’s “Next steps” list, read on 21 September 2026, marks the project at “Community feedback on the Review of Environmental Factors and proposed design - WE ARE HERE”. Ahead of it sit a determination report, detailed design, a request for tender, appointment of a main contractor and start of construction. Every one of those five remaining steps is tagged “(subject to funding)”.

The money committed is $15 million, jointly from the Australian and NSW governments in June 2024, with the Australian Government share $7.5 million and the 2025-26 NSW Budget allocating $12.4 million over four years. The federal project record describes the scope plainly: “develop a Final Business Case to link Liz Kernohan Drive at Spring Farm and Spring Farm Parkway Stage-1 at Menangle Park”.

Jacobs Australia was appointed in May 2025 to do the design and prepare the Review of Environmental Factors. Transport for NSW had signalled late 2026 for the public display and early 2027 for the final business case; the display opened in September 2026 — the report gives 3 September, and the governments announced it on 7 September — ahead of that.

What it means for a household here

Stage 1 is open and gives Menangle Park a connection to the Hume Motorway; the ramps are city-facing only, so it is not a full interchange, and southbound motorway trips need another one. Stage 2 is the piece that would open up the run west to Camden and the Camden Bypass, and Transport for NSW expects it to divert around 30,000 cars a day from Narellan Road once operating. None of that is scheduled.

Plan your driving around the roads that exist. Menangle Road remains the daily route to Campbelltown, and its own proposed widening is also only at planning stage.

What to watch

The determination report. Transport for NSW says that once the display period ends it will publish a report summarising the feedback it received and its responses, on the project website. After that the road needs construction funding it does not have, so the next thing to watch beyond the report is a budget, not a works notice. The project team’s infoline is 1800 325 146.
