A stretch of Mundijong Road in the City of Rockingham has reopened after four months of significant safety upgrades.
Located between Telephone Lane and Duckpond Road, the upgraded section of road includes several new safety features designed to reduce the risk of serious crashes.
The enhancements include a realigned curve and widened road to enhance driver visibility, raised medians and crash barriers for added protection, turning lanes, upgraded drainage systems, and new street lighting to improve visibility at night.
“Improving road safety is a top priority for the City, and this upgrade to Mundijong Road is a great example of what can be achieved through collaboration with the State Government,” City of Rockingham Mayor Deb Hamblin said.
“These upgrades will help reduce the risk of serious crashes and improve visibility for all road users, especially during peak travel times and at night.”
The project was jointly funded by the state government and the City of Rockingham, with the City securing over $3 million in funding through Main Roads WA’s Metropolitan Regional Road Group scheme.
It is one of several projects being delivered across the Rockingham area to improve community safety, including sections of Baldivis Road, Mandurah Road, Safety Bay Road, Stakehill Road and other key parts of the local road network.
“We’re committed to addressing known crash-prone areas with targeted upgrades that make a real difference to the safety of our local roads. This project is just one of many across the City that are reducing the risk of crashes and helping to save lives," Mayor Hamblin said.
“We understand the roadworks have caused some disruption for local commuters, and we sincerely thank the community for their patience.”
