What's happening
You can read the October Construction Update.
Traffic realignment on Mandurah Road
Due to recent wet weather, the traffic realignment has been rescheduled to October 2025. As part of continued road construction and clearing for amenity walls with the north-east of the project, traffic will need to be realigned on the western side of the bridge:
- Westbound traffic will be directed onto the new approach road after the existing bridge.
- Eastbound traffic will remain in the right-hand lane after the merge point from Old Coast Road and then move back into the left-hand lane before crossing over the bridge.
This will enable necessary working room for amenity wall installation and build the new median strip between old and new approaches.
Egret Point Road closure
From Monday, 13 October to Saturday, 8 November 2025, part of Egret Point Road will be closed while we complete construction of the western abutment and deliver amenity upgrades to the western foreshore.
During this time:
- local traffic west of the existing bridge will be detoured to Old Coast Road from Bower Drive;
- local traffic east of the bridge will be detoured via Leisure Way (see map opposite); and
- pedestrians and cyclists will still have access under the bridge via a temporary footpath.
Upcoming night works
From 22 – 24 October 2025, 7pm to 5am, nightworks are required to set up the new alignment. A detour will be in place for eastbound traffic (towards Perth) with traffic diverted via Old Coast Road and Pinjarra Road.
Westbound traffic will be reduced to one lane over Mandurah Estuary Bridge during this time.
Existing fishing platform
The existing fishing platform remains closed for safety reasons.
Members of the community are requested to refrain from accessing the construction area to access the fishing platform. Fishing and swimming from within the construction area is not recommended.
