Traffic tipped to improve following Hartman Drive works
Work is now underway on widening a section of Hartman Drive into a dual carriageway.
The 2km stretch of Hartman Drive between Hepburn Avenue to Gnangara Road will be turned into a four-lane dual carriageway, with upgraded street lighting, drainage, shared footpaths and cycleways.
Initial construction and preliminary works commenced in March, with construction along the western side of Hartman Drive due for completion by the end of October.
Approximately $2.1 million of the project’s total $4.7 million cost will be spent in the 2020/21 financial year.
Wanneroo Mayor Tracey Roberts said works to the northbound lanes would cause minimal disruption to traffic and residents, and safe and secure access will be provided to local schools.
“I would like to thank Main Roads WA for contributing $3 million in funding to this project through the Metropolitan Regional Road Group,” Mayor Roberts said.
