Several roads in the City of Rockingham will be given a revamp under the City's Road Rehabilitation and Renewal Program.
The program will see the City resurface 13.5km of local roads and 3.7km of footpaths, replace broken kerbing and upgrade stormwater drainage lids through 48 projects.
Key projects include Dixon Road between Mandurah Road and McCamey Avenue at a cost of $667,130, Council Avenue between Read Street and Goddard Street which will cost $388,487 and Safety Bay Road between Short Street and Viking Road ($285,509).
The City has secured d $1,079,295 from Main Roads to help fund the projects.
Mayor Deb Hamblin said these works were an important part of managing the City’s extensive road network which stretches more than 1130kms.
“The City’s annual Road Rehabilitation and Renewal Program helps to maintain local roads to a safe standard for road users, as well as extending their lifetime and reducing the potential for costly repairs,” Mayor Hamblin said.
“In the lead up to projects starting, community members in areas that will be affected will be notified by the City through letter drops and the use of variable message boards. When required, the City may also implement traffic management."
Works are expected to be completed in March 2025.
