Construction continues on a second, two-lane bridge on the south side of the existing Mandurah Estuary Bridge.
The new bridge is anticipated to touch the western foreshore in early August. Following this milestone, works will continue to build the abutment retaining walls, approach roads and prepare the bridge deck.
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 in early-2026.
