Perth Link Roads
This project has improved safety and efficiency by removing heavy vehicles from the centre of Perth as they travel to and from the northern and north-western ports.
This project provided a divided dual lane highway (four lanes, about 4.5 km in length) around the western side of Perth, continuing on from the Perth-Breadalbane project, connecting in to Illawarra Road, and joining up at the South Esk Bridge.
Works also included:
This project is the final link in a dual carriageway along the Midland Highway, from Launceston to the south of Perth, Tasmania.
The Department of State Growth conducted noise modelling post construction and the report can be downloaded here.
