Tonkin Highway is part of Perth’s Principal Road Freight Network that serves key activity centres such as Perth Airport and the Kewdale Freight Terminal.
This project will upgrade a section of the Tonkin Highway from Collier Road to Dunreath Drive with associated works enabling METRONET’s Morley-Ellenbrook Line.
Works as part of this project include:
- additional traffic lanes in each direction between Collier Road and Dunreath Drive
- new bridges over the Swan River, Guildford Road, Railway Parade and Dunstone Road
- upgrades to the Guildford Road and Great Eastern Highway interchanges
- a Principal Shared Path (PSP) with bridges, underpasses and local connections for cyclists and pedestrians
- noise walls, lighting and amenity improvements
Additionally, a new Principle Shared Path (PSP) will be constructed on the western side of Tonkin Highway from north of Guildford Road interchange to Stanton Road with local connections.
