Source: Transport for NSW

Heavy vehicle operators are advised of upcoming work on the M1 Princes Motorway between Helensburgh and Maddens Plains.

To reduce traffic impacts, work will be carried out at night, between 8pm and 4am from Sunday 14 December to Thursday 18 December, weather permitting.

During work hours, a southbound detour will be in place via the Princes Highway. This detour is suitable for all vehicles up to and including PBS 2A. All other heavy vehicles, including vehicles operating under a permit that do not have the detour listed, will be escorted through the work zone by traffic control, and should call UHF 13 on approach.

This detour will add up to 10 minutes to journey times.
