Due to continual rains, the Wanneroo Road and Joondalup Drive intersection will no longer be closed 21-24 June 2019 for construction works.
PLEASE NOTE THIS INFORMATION IS PROVIDED BY MAINROADS WA
Being able to complete the final road works in time for the intersection closure date is weather dependent, making it difficult to accurately confirm the closure date weeks in advance.
Therefore, Main Roads WA will confirm the intersection closure date five days in advance (on the Monday before the intersection will be closed). The date will be communicated via the electronic boards close to the intersection, Main Roads website, social media and electronic updates.
