What's happening

Watermain installation works

As part of the early works program, a new watermain is being installed along Brinsmead Road and across Abernethy Road to Adelaide Street. These works will take place over two consecutive weekends through a 24/7 operation in two stages:

  • Stage 1 – Install 150m of pipe under Brinsmead Road, between Abernethy and Collopy Road.
  • Stage 2 – Install 65m of pipe under Abernethy Road, between Adelaide Street and Brinsmead Road.
This works will require a closure of Brinsmead Road, followed by a closure of Abernethy Road between Adelaide Street and Ulm Place.

For more information on the closures and detour information, please see our latest Roadworks Update.

Lloyd Street Bridge update

Main Roads and the City of Swan have started discussions with Traditional Owners to explore the viability of a new alignment for the Lloyd Street Bridge. A recent proposal submitted by Traditional Owners would relocate the bridge further west, to a narrower crossing of the Helena River, loosely following the footprint of the old Whiteman Road bridge that was demolished in 2002. Subject to the outcome of these discussions, further site investigation and project development activity could take place.
