I came across section of Pacific Highway between Balina and Newcastle which is 
currently under upgrade until 2020. (https://www.pacifichighway.nsw.gov.au)

At some parts it looks like a motorway, but in most parts it still looks like a 
trunk.

South from Newcastle and north from Balina there are  M1 signs at both ends, 
but between them this is still marked as A1.

Near Newcastle there is "END MOTORWAY" sign 
(https://www.mapillary.com/app/?lat=-32.827333333333335&lng=151.63297222222224&z=17&focus=photo&pKey=QwLK6dsVE3rIYlRi71FkkQ&x=0.4803505694838756&y=0.4734649939668362&zoom=0.04809894640403123)

Besides, there are still some junctions where you can access both sides of 
highway at a time.

Looking at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dmotorway I would 
rather say that this section of highway is trunk instead od motorway. Sure, 
they upgraded most parts to dual carriageway, but this does not automatically 
means that these sections are motorway, because still some work has to be done 
(bypasses, ramps, etc).

I wanted to ask for some more opinions before changing this section of Pacific 
Highway to trunk.

Feel free to comment.

Best regards,
Aleksandar
