PROJECT INFORMATION AND STATUS 3.1. Project Update Randall Field (Main Roads Project Director) explained the project status and timeline. • Formal project contract award to WBHO SRG Joint Venture: 30 January 2019 • Detailed Design currently underway • Site commencement: Late March 2019 • Project completion: Late 2020 3.2. Design Update Keith McLean (Contractor’s Project Manager) explained they are now in the Detailed Design Stage and will be presenting the 15% design, which confirms: • Wanneroo Road going over Ocean Reef Road • Wanneroo Road will be free flowing • Shared Path connectivity • Typical sections of road will have two lanes in each direction plus merge/turning lanes, with provision made for future (ultimate) layout • Underpass will have precast trapezoid sections, with skylight and internal lighting included • Bridge will have two spans, shallow footings, mechanically stabilised earth (MSE) abutments and precast concrete beams with insitu decK slab See map below. Construction Reference Group 27 February 2019 Page 3 Wanneroo Road and Ocean Reef Road Interchange Questions resulted as follows: Q Is shared path a footpath too? Yes – 3m wide shared path accommodates pedestrians and cyclists. Some 2m paths A are footpath only. Q Will the shared path be free flowing for cyclists? East-west shared path along Ocean Reef Road will be free flowing for cyclists. North- A east shared path along Wanneroo Road will have some stoppages. The roads also incorporate 1.5m wide shoulders for cyclist use. Q Is the BP Service Station being demolished? A Yes – intended as early worKs. Area will be rehabilitated at completion. Q Will there for a third lane for merging? Yes, two lanes going straight and a third for merging at a couple of locations on A Wanneroo Road. Construction Reference Group 27 February 2019 Page 4 Wanneroo Road and Ocean Reef Road Interchange 3.3. U-Turn Facility Keith McLean (Contractor’s Project Manager) explained a U-Turn facility is included north of Villanova Street on Wanneroo Road, to allow vehicles coming out of Villanova Street to go southbound on to Wanneroo Road. Right turns out of Villanova Street on to Wanneroo Road are being removed to improve safety and the risk of right-angle crashes. • U-Turn facility will cater for service vehicles up to 8.8 metres. • Image below shows provision for different types of vehicles, including trucks from local businesses, stretched limousines (hearses) and local resident’s trailers. Construction Reference Group 27 February 2019 Page 5 Wanneroo Road and Ocean Reef Road Interchange An example of a similar U-Turn facility is at Gnangara Road east of Alexander Drive intersection, as shown below: Questions resulted as follows: Q Will trailers and caravans be able to get around U-Turn? A Yes provision has been made. Q There are currently lots of vehicles that make right-turns out of Villanova; sometimes up to five minutes waiting time. Vehicles have to wait for a break created by traffic lights. This may create a long queue leading up to U-Turn. How long will the lead up road to the U-Turn be? Can the U-Turn facility be pushed further north to allow for a longer lead road? A Keith and Brian will look into further. ACTION: Review U-Turn length (currently approx. 70m), location and traffic movements. Provide update at next CRG. Q Will Regent Waters residents have trouble getting out? A They can also use Backshall Place if they don’t want to use Villanova Street. Q U-Turn near Kingsway Shopping Centre is very congested. Will this one be the same? A The U-Turn design for this project is very different. The area also isn’t as congested as Kingsway. Construction Reference Group 27 February 2019 Page 6 Wanneroo Road and Ocean Reef Road Interchange 3.4. Noise and screen walls • Full noise model is being undertaken based on final geometry and 15% design for the noise walls will be presented at the next CRG meeting • Detailing to be finalised, including any artwork and colours • Consultation will be undertaken with individual property owners Likely minimum extents of noise walls Questions resulted as follows: Q Will a check be done after noise walls are built to review noise levels? Yes, plus noise wall design is based on future traffic levels so should be more than A sufficient for the current state Q Will Wanneroo Road be raised near Woodvale Drive? Only very slightly – Wanneroo Road ties back into grade at the south side of Woodvale Drive. If any noise mitigation is required it would be because of the new left A turn pocket being closer to properties than the current traffic lane. Local residents will be engaged with one-on-one. Q Will noise walls back on to people’s properties? A Yes some will. Q What will the noise walls be made of? Generally concrete panels between steel posts, but in some areas possibly limestone A for consistency purposes, as that’s what already exists nearby. Both are effective materials for absorbing noise. Q When will consultations be undertaken with residents? A 2-3 weeks following finalisation of the noise model and wall extents Q Will residents that currently have colorbond fences get noise walls? Construction Reference Group 27 February 2019 Page 7 Wanneroo Road and Ocean Reef Road Interchange If a noise wall is required where there is currently a colorbond fence then yes, this will A be improved as colorbond does not effectively reduce noise.

  • P1368b-1370A Mr Paul Miles; Mr Dean Nalder GNANGARA ROAD
    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Thursday, 17 March 2016] p1368b-1370a Mr Paul Miles; Mr Dean Nalder GNANGARA ROAD — REALIGNMENT Grievance MR P.T. MILES (Wanneroo — Parliamentary Secretary) [9.50 am]: My grievance is to the Minister for Transport, Hon Dean Nalder, and refers to a very similar matter raised earlier by the member for Girrawheen. It is important that we put across what has happened in this particular area. As most people in the northern suburbs know, for some time Gnangara Road has been a major distributor road to the industrial estate. In 2014, when residents were becoming alarmed at some of the traffic build-up there, we, in conjunction with the City of Wanneroo, were able to have the road reclassified. The road now is once again a local road and it comes under the jurisdiction, in that sense, of the City of Wanneroo. The big concern for the little enclave in the northern part of the suburb of Madeley—which is in the southern part of my electorate and bounds the electorates of both the member for Girrawheen and the member for Kingsley—is the realignment of Gnangara Road, which has to happen. It is one of those issues that the local authority has left on the backburner, not by choice but because it is a road that has just worked and people have just gone about their business. However, it is very clear that as more homes have been built in that area, the little enclave has tripled in size, especially with the private estate and private roads that are being built alongside.

  • Perth–Darwin National Highway (Swan Valley Section)
    Final Public Environment Report Perth–Darwin National Highway (Swan Valley Section) FEBRUARY 2016 | PART A: DRAFT PUBLIC ENVIRONMENT REPORT Public Environmental Review Perth-Darwin National Highway (Swan Valley Section) SEPTEMBER 2015 | VOLUME I: MAIN TEXT This document is a Public Environmental Review under the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (WA) and a draft Public Environment Report under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction Main Roads Western Australia (MRWA) proposes to construct a new section of the Perth–Darwin National Highway (hereafter referred to as ‘the proposal’) between Malaga and Muchea, Western Australia. The proposal is 38 km of new dual carriageway highway to the west of the Swan Valley and will connect the intersection of Tonkin Highway and Reid Highway in the south with Great Northern Highway and Brand Highway in the north. The proposal is the culmination of decades of planning for the southern terminus of the Perth–Darwin National Highway (PDNH), a key 4,000 km road transport route linking Perth with northern Western Australia and the Northern Territory. This document is a Public Environmental Review (PER) required under Western Australian environmental legislation and a Public Environment Report required under Commonwealth environmental legislation. It will be used by Western Australian and Commonwealth agencies as the basis for environmental assessment of the proposal. Background and Context The current PDNH alignment follows Great Northern Highway through the Swan Valley between Roe Highway and Muchea. However, urban growth and increased tourism between Midland and Bindoon has generated additional traffic on roads in and around the Swan Valley, including on Great Northern Highway.

  • B4-1 Proposed Reclassification of Gnangara Road from a Local
    Ordinary Meeting of Council 30 June 2010 4.1 PROPOSED RECLASSIFICATION OF GNANGARA ROAD FROM A LOCAL GOVERNMENT ROAD TO A STATE ROAD (Various Wards) (Executive) KEY ISSUES • The Member for West Swan, Ms Rita Saffioti MLA, has written seeking the City's support to have Gnangara Road reclassified from a Local Government road to a State road. • Gnangara Road provides a strategic east-west link across the northern metropolitan area. The traffic volume is approximately 25,000 vehicles per day and is rapidly increasing. The road needs to be upgraded to a dual carriageway as soon as possible. • The City has lobbied State and Federal Governments for some time in an endeavour to have Gnangara Road upgraded. It is recommended that Council support the request to have Gnangara Road reclassified from a Local Government road to a State road and prepare a submission to Main Roads Western Australia (MRWA) on this matter. BACKGROUND The Member for West Swan, Ms Rita Saffioti MLA, has written seeking the City's support to have Gnangara Road reclassified from a Local Government road to a State road. Gnangara Road is classified as an "Other Regional Road" in the Metropolitan Region Scheme. It serves as a link through Great Northern Highway, the proposed Perth- Darwin National Highway, Ellenbrook Regional Centre, Wangara and Neerabup industrial areas, the Mitchell Freeway and the Joondalup Regional Centre. At present Reid Highway is the only main road connecting the two regional centres of Joondalup and Ellenbrook. The next major road to the north which serves a similar function is Gnangara Road while Neaves Road is a further 20km to the north.
