Reid Highway Dual Carriageway: Altone Road to West Swan Road
Agency: Main Roads Western Australia
The Reid Highway Dual Carriageway Project involves the investigation, design and upgrading of Reid Highway – Altone to West Swan Road. The scope of works will include:
- Construction of a 4km, two lane second carriageway between Altone and West Swan Roads.
- Modifications to the Reid Highway and West Swan Road intersection.
- Construction of a duplicate bridge deck for second carriageway across Bennett Brook.
- Construction of a duplicate underpass structure east of Lord Street.
- Improvements to pedestrian and cycling facilities.
- An option to build a new bridge over Reid Highway, connecting the northern and southern sections of Arthur Street.
In February 2019, the $46 million contract to upgrade the final section of the dual carriage-way on Reid Highway was awarded to Perth-based company Decmil.
It is the first major road project delivered under the WA Industry Participation Strategy, which is estimated to create 400 jobs for Western Australians.
The project is expected to be completed by mid 2020.
