Anketell Road will be upgraded to support a new, modern and uninterrupted freight route from the future port to be built within the Kwinana Industrial Area.

Once completed, a new freight corridor will connect the Port with Muchea in the north, and the South-West via Anketell Road, Thomas Road and Tonkin Highway.

  • Alleviates noise concerns for residents along the current Fremantle freight route
