How will trucks over 12.5 metres long (such as semi-trailers, B-doubles and long vehicles) travel to Fremantle once this new section is built?
Trucks heading to Fremantle on the current Roe Highway will continue across Kwinana Freeway, travelling west on the new extension until its end point at Stock Road. From there vehicles will travel north along Stock Road and then turn left at Leach Highway and use Leach Highway / High Street to access Fremantle as is currently the case. As a result, a significant number of trucks will be removed from the Kwinana Freeway (between Roe Highway and Leach Highway) and Leach Highway (between Kwinana Freeway and Stock Road). Prior to the opening of the Roe Highway Extension the State Government will review the available information and determine the benefits and practicality of extending the existing truck restrictions on Leach Highway and South Street.
