Road name changes There are two routes in southern NSW that will change their name from early 2013. • The Southern Freeway and Mount Ousley Road from Waterfall to Albion Park Rail will become the M1 . • The Hume Highway will be named the M31 Hume Motorway, from the M5 at Prestons to Berrima, after which it will revert to the Hume Highway. The route will however retain the alpha numeric route marker M31.
