The Centenary Motorway is a motorway through the western suburbs of Brisbane in south-eastern Australian state of Queensland. It begins west of Indooroopilly west of downtown Brisbane as a continuation of the Western Freeway ( M5) and runs south to Springfield. He crosses the Ipswich Motorway (M7 ) at Darra and the Logan Motorway (M2 ) at Camira. From Springfield from it performs as a two-lane main road west to Yamanto south of Ipswich.

The highway has eight ports, of which the largest of the Ipswich Motorway (M7 ) is. She directs the traffic from the west of Brisbane in the north of the city.

Designation as a highway

Almost the entire route is four lanes and has now been recognized as a motorway. The route east of Springfield, which does not yet meet the highway standard should be expanded over time. Since October 2006, the hexagonal Metro Road ( QM5 ) exchanged character gradually towards motorway (M5 ) characters.

The M5 will in future be further expanded according to South East Queensland Infrastructure plan and program. Additional tracks are to be installed to accommodate the increased traffic flow ..
