The City of Rockingham has upgraded and improved the safety of a stretch of Mundijong Road to address a history of run-off-road and head-on crashes.
Located between Telephone Lane and Duckpond Road, the upgraded section of road includes several new safety features designed to reduce the risk of serious crashes. The enhancements include:
- A realigned curve and widened road to enhance driver visibility
- Raised medians and crash barriers for added protection
- Turning lanes
- Upgraded drainage systems
- New street lighting to improve visibility at night
“Improving road safety is a top priority for the City, and this upgrade to Mundijong Road is a great example of what can be achieved through collaboration with the State Government,” City of Rockingham Mayor Deb Hamblin said.
The road section was originally nominated as a Black Spot project in 2019, however estimates for the treatments were greater than the allowable maximum project cost of $3 million, making it ineligible for Black Spot funding. In 2023, the City submitted this project to the Metropolitan Regional Road Group for Road Improvement Funding and that was subsequently successful.
It is one of several projects being delivered across the Rockingham area to improve community safety, including sections of Baldivis Road, Mandurah Road, Safety Bay Road, Stakehill Road and other key parts of the local road network.
“We’re committed to addressing known crash-prone areas with targeted upgrades that make a real difference to the safety of our local roads. This project is just one of many across the City that are reducing the risk of crashes and helping to save lives.”
