The Centenary Motorway is a highway through the western suburbs of Brisbane in the southeast of the 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 . It crosses the Ipswich Motorway (M7) at Darra and the Logan Motorway (M2) at Camira . From Springfield it runs as a two-lane main road west to Yamanto south of Ipswich .

The motorway has eight connections, the largest of which is the Ipswich Motorway (M7). It directs traffic from the west of Brisbane to the north of the city.

Designation as a motorway

Almost the entire route has been expanded to four lanes and has now also been designated as a motorway. The stretch east of Springfield, which does not yet meet the highway standard, is to be expanded over time. Since October 2006, the hexagonal Metroroad (QM5) signs have been gradually exchanged for motorway (M5) signs.

According to the South East Queensland Infrastructure Plan and Program, the M5 is to be further expanded in the future. Additional lanes are to be added to accommodate the increased traffic flow.
