Project description

Forrest Highway, Robertson Drive and Bussell Highway in Bunbury are experiencing congestion and safety issues due to a mix of tourist, local and freight traffic. Access to Bunbury Port for road freight is also inefficient with heavy vehicles using indirect routes and being constrained by a number of at grade intersections.

This project will construct a southern connection to Bussell Highway (Stage 2) and northern connection to Forrest Highway (Stage 3) from the existing Bunbury Outer Ring Road Stage 1 link, which was completed in May 2013.

Benefits

The project will:

improve freight productivity and access to freight gateways
improve road safety and reduce congestion for all road users

Funding

The Australian Government has committed $681.6 million towards the $852 million project.

Timetable

The project is in planning.

Project last updated: 23 May 2024
