    Federal priorities for Western Australia April 2013 Keeping Western Australians on the move. Federal priorities for Western Australia Western Australia’s rapid population growth coupled with its strongly performing economy is creating significant challenges and pressures for the State and its people. Nowhere is this more obvious than on the State’s road and public transport networks. Kununurra In March 2013 the RAC released its modelling of projected growth in motor vehicle registrations which revealed that an additional one million motorised vehicles could be on Western Australia’s roads by the end of this decade. This growth, combined with significant developments in Derby and around the Perth CBD, is placing increasing strain on an already Great Northern Hwy Broome Fitzroy Crossing over-stretched transport network.

    Bunbury Outer Ring Road Southern Section Updated Environmental Referral Supporting Document and Additional Information BORR-02-RP-EN-0014 Rev 2 October 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Bunbury Outer Ring Road (BORR) is a planned Controlled Access Highway linking the Forrest Highway and Bussell Highway. BORR will be a high standard route for access to the Bunbury Port and facilitate proposed development to the east of the City of Bunbury. BORR provides an effective bypass of Bunbury for inter-regional traffic. The BORR Project comprises three sections: • ‘BORR Northern Section’ – Forrest Highway to Boyanup-Picton Road. • ‘BORR Central Section’ – Boyanup-Picton Road to South Western Highway, an existing four kilometre (km) section which was completed in May 2013, along with a three km extension of Willinge Drive southwards to South Western Highway. • ‘BORR Southern Section’ – South Western Highway (near Bunbury Airport) to Bussell Highway. The Commissioner of Main Roads Western Australia (Main Roads) is proposing to construct and operate the southern section of the BORR Project. Main Roads is referring the BORR Southern Section (the Proposal) to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) for a decision on assessment under Section 38 of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act). The purpose of this document is to provide information to support the decision on assessment of the Proposal. The Proposal includes the construction and operation of 10.5 km of freeway standard, dual carriageway southwest of South Western Highway (south of Bunbury Airport) to Bussell Highway and a 3 km regional distributor from Bussell Highway at Centenary Road southeast to a grade separated interchange at the western end of Lilydale Road.

    HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION Project Profile Great Northern Highway/North West Coastal Highway Intersection Upgrade, Port Hedland, WA Re-prioritisation of a key intersection enables free-flowing CONTRACT movement for trucks on a major freight route 41/15 - AS2124 construct only (roadworks) PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Great Northern Highway (GNH) and North West Coastal Highway (NWCH) CLIENT are the two main north-south routes between Perth and the north of Western Main Roads WA Australia. PRE-QUALIFICATION The GNH typically carries high volumes of heavy vehicle traffic between Newman R3 and Port Hedland; and the NWCH coastal route carries tourist traffic and lighter freight vehicles between Karratha and Port Hedland. TIMEFRAME Port Hedland has also taken its place as the busiest port (by tonnage) in the Jun 2016 - Nov 2016 World, as the iron ore juniors are without access to a mine-to-port rail link and use the road network as their primary transportation route. LOCATION As a result, the time taken for heavy vehicle road traffic to travel between the port Port Hedland, WA can have significant cost considerations for the iron ore juniors and the wider WA freight industry, with seemingly minor delays at intersections adding up to millions of dollars per year. PROJECT VALUE $3.6 million The configuration where the GNH intersected with the NWCH was originally a simple t-junction. This meant heavy vehicle traffic travelling north was required to stop before making a right turn from the GNH onto the NWCH to proceed northwards to Port Hedland. Works to upgrade this intersection were therefore commissioned to eliminate the old t-junction to allow heavy vehicle traffic a free-flow of movement between Newman and Port Hedland.
