The City of Rockingham’s Road Rehabilitation and Renewal Program for 2024/2025 began in early October with 48 projects to be delivered across the City.

The program is a key part of the City’s annual overall asset management activities to ensure road and footpath networks are maintained to appropriate standards, ensuring safety and comfort for all users.

This program will involve the resurfacing of 13.5 km of local roads and 3.7km of footpaths, replacing broken kerbing and upgrading stormwater drainage lids. Work is anticipated to conclude in March 2025.

The program and will include the following key projects: 

Dixon Road (westbound) between Mandurah Road and McCamey Avenue ($667,130)Council Avenue (eastbound) between Read Street and Goddard Street ($388,487)Safety Bay Road between Short Street and  Viking Road ($285,509)Read Street (southbound) between Council Avenue and Rae Road ($277,816)

The City has secured $1,079,295 of funding from Main Roads WA’s Metropolitan Regional Road Group scheme to help fund the program.

Mayor Deb Hamblin said these works were an important part of managing the City’s extensive road network which stretches more than 1,130kms.

“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.”
