Works are continuing on the $7 million Munday Avenue extension in Pinjarra.
Limestone has now been installed completing the current stage of the project for the financial year.
Shire of Murray Chief Executive Officer Dean Unsworth said the extension is a key part of improving transport access throughout the area and supporting future growth.
“Once finished, the new connection between Greenlands Road and Munday Avenue will provide a direct link to the Pinjarra industrial area, giving heavy vehicles and other traffic an alternative route that avoids the town centre,” Mr Unsworth said.
“Providing an alternative route for heavy vehicles is an important step in reducing traffic through the Pinjarra CBD. By directing industrial traffic away from the town centre, the project will help improve safety, reduce congestion and create a more pleasant environment for residents, visitors and local businesses."
This project is funded by the State Government.
