Pedestrian Crossing Upgrades - Stuart Highway

The Department of Infrastructure, Planning and Logistics is undertaking works to upgrade existing pedestrian crossings at two locations, Stuart Highway/McMillans Road intersection and Stuart Highway/Vanderlin Drive intersection.

The new pedestrian crossing will improve road safety for all road users, in particular pedestrians and cyclists, by incorporating signalised pedestrian infrastructure.

The scope of works include:

• minor concrete works
• installation of road signs, hold rails and tactiles
• pavement marking
• installation of pedestrian signal infrastructure
• street lighting upgrades at Stuart Highway / McMillans Road intersection.

Works will commence on Monday 13 May at the Stuart Highway / McMillans Road intersection and are expected to take approximately 4 weeks to complete.

Works at the Stuart Highway/Vanderlin Drive will commence following this period and are expected to be completed by end of July 2024.

Works will be undertaken between the hours of 9am to 3:30pm, Monday to Friday, including weekends from 7am to 5pm. To reduce traffic disruption, some works will be carried out between 8pm and 5am, Sunday to Thursday during the same period.

Motorists, pedestrians and cyclists are advised to take caution during these works and adhere to the traffic management in place. Temporary lane closures and speed restrictions will apply.
