Construction continues on a second, two-lane bridge on the south side of the existing Mandurah Estuary Bridge.

The second two-lane crossing now has eight ‘segment launches’ completed, and extends halfway across the estuary.

With more than 33,000 vehicles using the existing bridge per day, the bridge duplication will help meet the increased demand created by population growth across Perth, Mandurah, Peel and the South West. Provision for a future third lane in each direction has been included in the project scope.

A four-metre-wide shared path will be constructed under the bridge, better connecting those walking, riding or wheeling. A new accessible fishing platform is also being constructed to enable people of all abilities to enjoy the area.

The bridge is expected to be open by late-2025, with finishing works continuing into early-2026.
