This project involves upgrading the intersection of Leach Highway and Welshpool Road, currently one of Perth’s most congested intersections.
Constructions works include a grade-separated interchange at the intersection with a new road bridge installed at Leach Highway over the Armadale/Thornlie rail line.
There will also be a shared path for cyclists and pedestrians.
The project will also support the east-west freight link connecting Fremantle with the Kewdale and Welshpool industrial area.
