Newcastle Inner City Bypass

The Newcastle Inner City Bypass (Highway 23) between the Pacific Highway at Windale and the Pacific Highway at Sandgate will provide an orbital road linking Newcastle's radial network.

The Bypass is being planned and constructed in five major sections. Sections completed to date are the West Charlestown Bypass (Bennetts Green to Kotara Heights), Kotara Heights to Rankin Park and Jesmond to Shortland. The two remaining sections are Rankin Park to Jesmond and Shortland to Sandgate.
