Mt Ousley Road between the M1 Princes Motorway and Gaynor Avenue will be closed to traffic for a weekend to allow for work to continue on the Mt Ousley Interchange.
It will be the first of four weekend closures over the next six months.
A Transport for NSW notification said the work would include increasing the level of Mt Ousley Road and building new road pavement between Gaynor Avenue and the motorway, as well as building part of the new intersection at Mt Ousley Road and the motorway.
Work will also be carried out on the new southbound access road to University Avenue.
Mt Ousley Road will be closed between Gaynor Avenue and the motorway from 6 am on Saturday 7 February to 4 am on Monday 9 February.
As part of the work plan, the commuter carpark will be closed from 6 am on Monday 2 February to 6 am Monday 9 February.

Southbound heavy vehicles over 4.6 metres high will be able to access the University Avenue overpass.
Northbound heavy vehicles over 4.9 metres high will be parked up and escorted through the worksite when conditions permit. Delays of up to one hour should be expected.
