Jointly funded by the Australian and Western Australian Governments, the project will deliver two new grade-separated interchanges to replace the existing signalised intersections at Altone Road and Drumpellier Drive/Daviot Road.
Local communities will benefit from the upgrades through the removal of two of the remaining five sets of traffic signals on Reid Highway.
“Reid Highway is one of Perth’s most important east-west links, and these new interchanges will make a significant difference for residents, businesses, and freight operators moving through our northern-eastern suburbs,” WA Transport minister Rita Saffioti says.
“The transformation of these intersections will deliver smoother, safer journeys while improving access for cyclists and pedestrians in the area.
“This $225 million joint investment is part of the Cook Government’s commitment to strengthening connectivity across Perth’s north and ensuring our transport network keeps pace with this fast growing region.”
Entry and exit ramps with connecting roundabouts will maintain access to local roads and residential areas.
The project will also improve cyclist and pedestrian access to the Swan Valley with a new uninterrupted Principal Shared Path (PSP) network from West Swan Road to Malaga.
With works taking place within a tight footprint, modifications to Reid Highway and surrounding intersections will be required while construction is underway, with measures to be put in place to keep people moving safely and efficiently.
