The North–South Motorway is a partially complete motorway traversing the inner western suburbs of Adelaide, from Waterloo Corner in the north to Bedford Park in the south. Progressively constructed in stages since 2010, once complete it will replace the adjacent South Road as Adelaide's main north–south roadway. It will form the central section of the North–South Corridor, being flanked north and south by the Northern Expressway and Southern Expressway, respectively. It is designated part of route M2.
By March 2021, approximately 24.1 kilometres (15.0 mi) of the motorway had been completed, with the remaining 10.5 kilometres (6.5 mi) in detailed planning and design stage. The full project is planned for completion in 2031.
