We are responsible for Western Australia’s highways and main roads which represent almost 30% of the State’s total assets. We are one of the largest geographically spread road agencies in the world, covering 2.5 million square kilometres.

As the States road network manager, we are responsible for almost 18 000 km of Western Australia’s 150 000 km road network. This represents some 12% of the network which carries around 60% of the road traffic.

Our services are delivered through the dedicated efforts and support of employees located in ten regional offices throughout the State.

We are committed to achieving the State government’s vision to provide the best opportunities for current and future generations. We contribute to this by:

• Engaging with our customers to identify their needs
• Ensuring the road network safely links goods, people and places
• Facilitating industrial, commercial and business development
• Enabling efficient access to other modes of transport
• Being a leader within the infrastructure delivery industry
• Contributing to the economic advancement of the State and the Nation.
