The first environmental studies are now complete on the Milton Ulladulla Bypass in New South Wales, with the concept design phase underway on the $940 million project.
Once built, the bypass will improve road safety and reduce travel times on the Princes Highway and improve trip reliability, by bypassing Milton and Ulladulla town centres.
Following the completion of preliminary environmental studies, the project will move into the concept design phase where we will explore corridor refinements to ensure the project best delivers improved connectivity and reduced travel times.
As the concept design phase continues, a comprehensive Environmental Impact Statement will also be developed to ensure construction of the bypass does not unnecessarily impact on local wildlife, while protecting and enhancing biodiversity.

While planning on the bypass continues, Transport for NSW is also considering other short-term opportunities in and around Milton and Ulladulla to make improvements to footpaths, signage and lighting.
NSW Member for South Coast Liza Butler said she looks forward to the community attending upcoming consultation sessions for the project.
“I am pleased to see the planning moving along for the bypass. This project will play a key role in improving safety and efficiency along the Princes Highway,” Butler said.
“In the meantime, we are committed to consulting with the community to help identify opportunities to upgrade footpaths, signage, lighting or reduced speed limits in and around Milton and Ulladulla that may be achieved in the short-term.”
