The City, as part of its 2025/2026 Capital Works Program, is proceeding with the second stage of this project, which involves constructing a new pathway along Hartman Drive, extending from Motivation Drive to Ocean Reef Road.

Works are scheduled to commence on 28 July 2025 with completion anticipated by 30 September 2025.

Part Road Closure

The majority of construction works will take place under a one lane (northbound) closure of the Hartman Drive dual carriageway.

Night Works

• 8 September 2025 and 25 September 2025, between the hours of 6pm and 6am. 
• Access along Hartman Drive will be continuous throughout these works as only one lane will be closed.

During construction, temporary traffic management will be implemented to safely manage traffic and pedestrians around the worksite. Whilst it is inevitable that works of this nature will cause some inconvenience, every endeavour will be made to ensure this is kept to a minimum.

The Water Corporation will soon begin works on Gnangara Road to construct over 14 kilometres of new wastewater pipeline from Ellenbrook to Wangara.

These essential works will enhance wastewater services for the City of Wanneroo and are a key step in securing Western Australia’s water future.

To carry out these works safely, traffic will be disrupted on Gnangara Road and several road closures are proposed on nearby streets. These closures will help maintain a safe working environment for construction crews while ensuring continued access for local residents.

Road closures and traffic disruptions will include:

• One lane will be closed on Gnangara Road, between Alexander Drive and Priest Road, from Monday 30 June. Access will be maintained via a new temporary lane.
• Priest Road (southbound only) will be closed from Monday 30 June to Monday 22 September 2025, with detour via Coverwood Promenade and Huntingdon Parkway.
• Huntington Parkway will be closed from Monday 30 June to Monday 22 September 2025, with a detour via Coverwood Promenade.
• Coverwood Promenade is proposed to be closed from Monday 29 September to Friday 28 November 2025, with a detour via Huntington Parkway.

For more information about the road closures and the wastewater pipeline project, visit the Water Corporation website.

In accordance with the Local Government Act 1995, City of Wanneroo advises Water Corporation, in partnership with Alkimos Pipeline Alliance, will be constructing a 33.5km major belowground water pipeline from the new Alkimos Desalination Plant to Wanneroo Reservoir from July 2025 to October 2027.

The pipeline will be the largest water pipeline Water Corporation has constructed, with a diameter of up to 1600mm, delivering up to 50 billion litres of drinking water annually to Perth's Integrated Water Supply Scheme and securing long-term water sustainability for the region.

Approximately 6km of pipeline has already been installed from the Alkimos plant to the corner of Wanneroo and Romeo Roads in Carabooda.

Works will pass through Carabooda to the Carabooda Tank, before heading south-east through Nowergup, Neerabup and along the outskirts of Banksia Grove, Mariginiup and Jandabup before reaching the Wanneroo Reservoir.

This alignment was determined in consultation with local stakeholders including the City of Wanneroo, Main Roads WA, Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage, and Whadjuk Aboriginal Corporation. Construction projects of this scale will cause disruption, but this alignment is considered to minimise impacts to the environment, residents, businesses and road users.

To ensure safety for the community and work crews, traffic management measures and temporary road closures possibly exceeding 28 days will be implemented progressively at various stages throughout the construction period. The following roads will be directly impacted:

• Orchid Road: Closure with detour via Wesco Road from end of July 2025 to April 2026.
• Wesco Road: Lane restrictions and speed reductions during work hours from April 2026.
• Adams Road: Closure with detour via Neaves Road from end of July to January 2026.
• Mariginiup Road: Lane restrictions with temporary sidetracks from end of July 2025 to mid-May 2026.

Access and Safety

• Access to properties will be maintained throughout the works. Where direct access is temporarily restricted, alternate routes or traffic controller support will be provided.
• Weekly rubbish collections will continue as normal. Should alternate bin placements be required residents will be directly advised.
• Placement of Variable Message Boards (VMBs) to inform motorists of changed road conditions.
• Spotters and traffic controllers will assist local traffic and residents.
• Emergency services will always have access.
• After-hours closures will be clearly marked and monitored for public safety.

Stay informed

Residents and road users are encouraged to stay informed by visiting the project webpage for detailed updates: watercorporation.com.au/alkimostowanneroo

Submissions on these proposed closures can be made in writing to the Chief Executive Officer by 5:00 PM Friday, 18 July 2025 via post to Locked Bag 1, Wanneroo WA 6946, or email: assetplanningmailbox@wanneroo.wa.gov.au.
