The trip to Sydney for Hunter motorists could be a whole lot easier after upgrades on the M1 are completed.
An extra lane will be added in both directions between Doyalson and Tuggerah to improve traffic flow and safety.
The first stage of the work started last month involving geotechnical investigations on the motorway in both directions at St Johns Road and Sparks Road.
Lane closures will be in place when work begins on Sunday April 30.
Motorists are being advised to follow the directions of traffic control, signs, and adhere to the reduced speed limits.
The works are a part of a $400 million motorway projects which includes a few other upgrades as well including at the Weakelys Drive and John Renshaw Drive intersection at Beresfield and to interchanges at Kariong as well.
