- a new underpass at Moorebank Avenue for traffic exiting the M5 Motorway at Hume Highway
- a new exit east of Moorebank Avenue for the M5 Motorway westbound towards the Hume Highway (the current exit at Moorebank Avenue will be maintained)
- closure of the existing westbound exit from the M5 Motorway to the Hume Highway between Moorebank Avenue and the Hume Highway
- widening Moorebank Avenue south of the M5 to accommodate a third through-lane
- a new shared pedestrian and cycle path along the M5 and across the new bridge, and
