add Port Wakefield bypass to that list I second that. A staged build to suit demand over time with ultimate design to the same standard as section 3 of Northlink WA (northern section of the Swan Valley bypass) north of Perth would be ideal. olhygH4-JtY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olhygH4-JtY] A...

Based on the Scoping Report for the Corridor, the highest priorities are sections known as R4 and R5 . Click here for the Scoping Report. That said, the section between Pym Street and Regency Road, known as R1, is rated as Low-Medium priority. Reviewing the cost estimates of page 44, I note the ave...

I reckon next will be Pym St to Torrens Road to connect T2T to the Superway due to ease and cost relative to the other sections and to complete the northern section of the expressway.

I'll cross my fingers for the budget.

Bad cement found its way into the T2T and Darlington projects in early April, http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-04-25/contaminated-cement-used-torrens-to-torrens-south-road-project/8470328 The construction union raised concerns last week that major projects had used contaminated materials from Adelaid...

The following has further detail on the bridge structures being built over the above period.

If no funds are committed to a further stage in next months federal budget I guess we can give up hope of a continuous build. Tony Abbot committed to this and said the whole North South corridor would be complete by 2025, without their funding this own't happen. Complete by 2025 was never going to ...

Nearmap have updated their imagery to March 17 and 18. The demo area which just includes the South Road/Grange Road intersection shows the excavation which has commenced under the new bridge. Further north, it looks like substantive work on the ground for the Northern Connector has only commenced in...

DPTI South Australia have recently published a video of the Outer Harbour rail bridge refurbishment over the Port River. yMkD3JA_owA This was done when the line was closed to construct the new rail bridge over South Road and constituted a replacement of the bridge spans and tracks. https://www.youtu...

The Gallipoli Underpass looks like it has a width of 21m between the side barriers. That's enough for 6x3.5m lanes but without any shoulders or space for a central barrier. Narrowing the lanes to 3.4m would provide 600mm of space for a central barrier but the complete lack of shoulders may mean the ...

On the cost of road tunnelling, twin 12m wide road tunnels ~3 km long have been priced for a road project on Perth's coastal plain at ~$900m (Roe 9). That project of 5km included a trench at the northern end perhaps 1km long passing under 2 further roads. https://www.waliberal.org.au/latest-news/lib...

No.

A later render shows South Road northbound to Salisbury Highway eastbound passing over both Northern Connector carriageways.

Went through the Scoping Report and whipped this up for anyone who has forgotten or is confused. Seems like there's a chunk missing between the Gallipoli Underpass and to the south. Ground level with concrete barriers separating the expressway carriageways from the service roads either side ? Under...
