National Route 32 (Great Western Highway) (Former Alignment: Emu Plains)

In 1994 this section of the highway was terminated at Emu Plains with the closure of the Knapsack Gully Viaduct. An extension to the M4 motorway at Emu Plains was constructed which rejoined with the highway at Lapstone. The upper portion of the Great Western Highway from Russell Street is now only used by residents and cars coming from Blaxland via Mitchells Pass.

Below are photos of the section after beautification works undertaken by Penrith City Council. Prior to this, this section of the highway was not divided.
