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).

LAKELANDS, MANDURAH — TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT Grievance MR D.A
Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Thursday, 8 May 2014] p3048b-3050a Mr David Templeman; Mr Dean Nalder LAKELANDS, MANDURAH — TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT Grievance MR D.A. TEMPLEMAN (Mandurah) [9.14 am]: My grievance this morning is to the Minister for Transport and concerns a very important issue for the residents of the booming Mandurah suburb of Lakelands and the parents and students who access the two schools in that locality. Lakelands is a major suburb in north Mandurah. In the past 10 years, it has grown from a community of a few dozen people to a population of more than 3 000 residents. The demographics include many first home buyers, a large number of young families with children and retirees. It has a very large retirement village called Lattitude Lakelands, which, in itself, houses more than 400 residents. The suburb is located between Mandurah Road on the west and the Perth–Mandurah rail line to the east. The only entrance into and out of Lakelands from Mandurah Road is Catalina Drive. Catalina Drive carries the traffic into and out of the suburb and there are no traffic lights at its intersection with Mandurah Road. Indeed, Catalina Drive is extremely busy. There are two schools in the area—Mandurah Baptist College, with 1 200 students and Lakelands Primary School, which, when it is fully operational next year, will have more than 450 students, compounding the volume of traffic and the safety concerns of the residents of Lakelands. At peak times Catalina Drive is expected to carry residents leaving the suburb for work and other day-to-day pursuits and their return, as well as the huge number of parents who drop off their children at Mandurah Baptist College.

Department of Environmental Protection
11 November 2016 Media Statement Keep the roads clean this summer Keep Australia Beautiful WA and Main Roads WA are helping motorists to be responsible this holiday season and keep their rubbish until they can dispose of it properly. The ‘WA naturally thanks you’ program is providing free car litter bags at selected roadhouses on Forrest Highway, Great Eastern Highway and Brand Highway. Motorists are being asked to use the car litter bags to keep their rubbish until they can put it in a bin. According to the 2015-16 National Litter Index, 54 per cent of the volume of litter along roadsides is made up of glass and plastic drink bottles, aluminium cans and take away containers such as plastic food containers and coffee cups. Keep Australia Beautiful Council WA Chairman Michael Aspinall said recent audits conducted by KAB WA showed food and beverage containers by volume of litter on some roadsides were as high as 75 per cent. ‘These are all items thrown from car windows – it’s unnecessary and makes our roadsides look awful,” he said. “There is also a significant impact on WA’s wildlife, which is why the program emblem is a Western Australian woylie. Keep Australia Beautiful WA hopes that travellers will think twice about carelessly discarding their unwanted items and put them in one of the many roadside bins instead.” Main Roads Road Network manager for the Central and Northern Regions, Jeff Anderson, said Main Roads spends up to $6 million a year on removing over 8000 tonnes of roadside litter and rubbish.
