Albany Highway upgrades complete near Gordon River

Works to improve the the safety of a 5.7km stretch of Albany Highway near Gordon River have been completed. The $10 million project reconstructed and widened to 11m the stretch in between Weir Road and Pinjalup Creek Bridge. Sight lines where the highway intersects with Frankland-Cranbrook Rad and Rockwell Road have been improved and new safety barriers, pavement markings and signage have been installed. Main Roads is now going through the tender process for shoulder widening on a section of the highway north of Kojonup. A Main Roads spokesman said the work between Beaufort River and Bailey Road was expected to come in early 2023, at a cost of about $4.5m.
