Project description

The project constructed a grade separation at the intersection of Wanneroo Road and Joondalup Drive.

Both Wanneroo Road and Joondalup Drive are major distributor roads servicing urban areas in the north-west corridor, the Neerabup Industrial Area, and coastal communities between Perth and Lancelin. The intersection was previously considered the sixth most congested in the Perth metropolitan region. Completion of the project has reduced congestion and improved safety by providing safe and efficient road access and amenity for road users and the local community.
