In February 2022 the UCI announced that a Women's U23 category will be added to the road and time trial race. The title will be awarded from within the elite women’s event and a separate race will be added from 2025.[4]

On March 1 AusCycling announced that Russian and Belarusian teams will not be allowed to compete based on International Olympic Committee's recommendation on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.[5]

Routes

In March 2022, the routes for the championships were announced.[6]

The Elite Road races start in Helensburgh, about 30km north of Wollongong before a 34km loop around Mount Keira (climb length of 8.7km, average gradient of 5%, maximum incline of 15%).[6][7] The Elite Road races then take in laps of the Wollongong City Circuit.[6] This 17.7km circuit has 220m of climbing elevation each lap including the Mount Pleasant climb (climb length of 1.1 km, average gradient of 7.7%, maximum incline of 14%).[6][7]

In total, the Elite Women Road Race will climb 2433m elevation over a race distance of 164.3km (1 Mount Keira loop, 6x Wollongong City Circuit) and the Elite Men Road Race will climb 3945m over a race distance of 266.9km (1 Mount Keira loop, 12x Wollongong City Circuit).[6][7] The other road races (Junior men, Junior women, U23 men) will use laps of the Wollongong City Circuit for their events.[6]

The time trial events will use courses similar to the Wollongong City Circuit, albeit avoiding the Mount Pleasant climb. The Elite Women and Elite Men time trial events will be over the same distance (34.2km).[6][7]
