EastLink WA
EastLink WA is a planned road construction project between Perth and Northam, Western Australia currently in the planning and development stages, with construction due to start in 2025.[1]
Route
[edit]EastLink WA is planned to bypass the Great Eastern Highway in the Perth Hills, with the west end beginning at the Roe Highway intersection with Toodyay Road in Middle Swan, and then heading east along Toodyay Road towards Gidgegannup, with a new alignment called the Orange Route linking with the Great Eastern Highway near Wundowie, from where it continues east to Northam.[1] It will become the main highway link leading into Perth from Adelaide and the eastern states of Australia.
History
[edit]In 2018, the Federal Government provided funding for planning the route.[2][3]
