The Newman RTAA remains temporarily closed for upgrades. The RTAA is expected to re-open by the end of December 2022.

Works at the RTAA include:

  • Upgrade to the existing access with pavement widening and dedicated pockets for entry and exit movements
  • Upgrade to the existing parking area with a fully sealed surface and improved drainage
  • 100 marked heavy vehicle parking bays
  • Installation of a new ablution block
  • Lighting of the access and parking bays

These works will improve the safe manoeuvring of 60 metre quad road trains, whilst also improving amenity for parking and break down of combination vehicles, reducing noise and dust.

Alternative Rest Area

An alternative temporary rest area has been made available approximately 1 km North of the current location.

HVS Update 19A-2022 is rescinded.

For further information please contact the Main Roads Customer Information Centre on 138 138.
