Дорожный маршрут в Новом Южном Уэльсе, Австралия
The A4, A44 and M4 are a collection of arterial routes in Sydney, New South Wales that connect the Inner West of Sydney with the outer western suburbs. The A4 and M4 mostly follows what was previously National Route 32 from the Western Distributor in the CBD, west to the Great Western Highway at Lapstone. Both the A4 and M4 sections were known as Metroad 4 until 2013, which in turn replaced the previous Sydney stretch of National Route 32 in September 1992 while the A44 was known as State Route 44 until 2013. Between 2019 and 2023, the progressive opening of WestConnex resulted in route allocation of M4 along newly opened sections, and former bypassed sections of A4 redesignated as A44. The last route redesignation was in November 2023 with the opening of Rozelle Interchange, the last component of the WestConnex. The names "M4", "A44" and "A4" are just the route allocations for the route as a whole. In fact, the M4 route runs along a whole series of motorways with the A44 running parallel along non motorway roads until they converge west of Anzac Bridge. East of here is the Western Distributor, the only section of the A4 route, even though the Western Distributor is also a controlled access highway (i. e. like a motorway but with lower speed limits). The roads from east to west are:
A4 section:
Western Distributor
A44 section:
Victoria Road
The Crescent
City West Link
Dobroyd Parade
Wattle Street
Great Western Highway/Parramatta Road (West of Wattle Street Intersection)
M4 section:
M4 East

A4, A44 и M4 – это совокупность основных маршрутов в Сиднее, Новый Южный Уэльс, соединяющих внутренний запад Сиднея с отдалёнными западными пригородами. A4 и M4 в основном повторяют траекторию бывшей Национальной трассы 32 от Западного дистрибьютора в центральном деловом районе (CBD) на запад до Великой Западной магистрали в Лапстоне. Участки A4 и M4 до 2013 года назывались Metroad 4, что, в свою очередь, заменило предыдущий участок Национальной трассы 32 в Сиднее в сентябре 1992 года, а A44 до 2013 года именовался как Государственная трасса 44. В период с 2019 по 2023 год постепенное открытие WestConnex привело к присвоению маршрута M4 вновь открытым участкам, а ранее объезжаемые участки A4 были переклассифицированы как A44. Последнее изменение нумерации маршрутов произошло в ноябре 2023 года с открытием развязки Розелл, последнего элемента WestConnex. Обозначения "M4", "A44" и "A4" – это просто присвоенные номера для маршрута в целом. Фактически, маршрут M4 проходит по серии автомагистралей, а A44 – параллельно по дорогам без статуса автомагистрали, пока они не соединяются к западу от моста Анзак. К востоку от этого находится Западный дистрибьютор, единственный участок маршрута A4, хотя Западный дистрибьютор также является дорогой с контролируемым доступом (то есть, как автомагистраль, но с более низкими ограничениями скорости). Дороги с востока на запад:

История
Самый ранний маршрут, присвоенный M4/A4, — национальный путь 32. Он был введен в 1954 году вместе с другими национальными маршрутами. Большая часть трассы национального пути 32 в Сиднее в 1954 году значительно отличалась от современной трассы M4/A4 в Сиднее. В то время национальный путь 32 проходил по всей Великой Западной магистрали от Голубых гор до Бродвея в Сиднее. С открытием автомагистрали M4 в 1992 году национальный путь 32 был укорочен и завершался в Лэпстоне, в Голубых горах. Метророуд 4 был введен для замены сиднейского участка национального пути 32, но проходил по автомагистрали вместо Великой Западной магистрали от Лапстоуна до Северного Стратфилда. Это был первый метророуд, введенный в Сиднее. Участок Великой Западной магистрали, который ранее был национальным путем 32, получил обозначение государственного маршрута 44, который теперь является A44. В 2000 году, с открытием City West Link, маршрут Метророуд 4 был изменен на Уоттл-стрит, Добройд-Парад, City West Link, Виктория-Роуд и Западный дистрибьютор, и завершался на перекрестке скоростной дороги Кэхилл, Западного дистрибьютора и шоссе Брэдфилд в Миллерс-Пойнте. В 2013 году, в рамках общештатского перехода на алфавитно-цифровые обозначения маршрутов, Метророуд 4 был заменен на M4 для участка автомагистрали и A4 для участка без автомагистрали. В июле 2019 года маршрут A4 между Стратфилдом и Хаберфилдом был перенесен на новые туннели M4 East и переобозначен как M4. Это означало, что A4 больше не проходит по участкам Парраматта-Роуд или Великой Западной магистрали. В январе 2023 года маршрут M4 был продлен вдоль недавно открытых туннелей M4–M8, но временно переходил в маршрут M8. Предыдущий участок A4 на City West Link также был переобозначен как A44. Это привело к разрыву между маршрутами M4 и A4 на десять месяцев, до открытия развязки Rozelle в ноябре 2023 года, которая продлила маршрут M4 вдоль вновь открытых туннелей до соединения с A4 к западу от моста Анзак.
