As the main corridor connecting Kooragang Island to Newcastle and the Southern section of the Port of Newcastle, approximately 33,000 vehicles use the Tourle Street and Cormorant Road corridor each day. Due to the urban development in Port Stephans, the expansion of Newcastle Airport, and growth of industrial development on Kooragang Island, there will be significant growth in traffic flow through this corridor. Roads and Maritime announced they had engaged WBHO Mcllwain for the duplication to ensure the corridor has the capacity to support the future growth in traffic.
