Roe Highway
Encyclopedia
Roe Highway is a limited access dual carriageway in Western Australia
. It links Great Northern Highway
and Middle Swan Road with Kwinana Freeway
. It is one of the key heavy vehicle routes in the Perth
metropolitan area. Aside from intersections, the speed limit is 100 km/h for most of its length. South of Orrong Road and Welshpool Road, the highway is a freeway standard, with no traffic lights and grade separation. The northern half is the standard of Perth's major highways; limited access, with few grade separations and traffic lights.
Roe Highway, together with Reid Highway
, is allocated State Route 3 and is part of National Highway 94
between Great Eastern Highway Bypass
and Great Eastern Highway
, and also part of National Highway 95
between Great Northern Highway
and Great Eastern Highway.
as part of what was to become the Metropolitan Region Planning Scheme. It is named in honour of John Septimus Roe
, first Surveyor General of Western Australia
.
Work began in 1981, with the first section between the Beechboro-Gosnells Highway
and Bushmead Road opening in 1983. The next section, from Bushmead Road to Great Eastern Highway
was opened in 1984. The third stage, linking Great Eastern Highway and Great Northern Highway
opened in 1988, at the same time as the Great Eastern Highway Bypass
opened. The new roads provided a limited access dual carriageway bypass of the historical Guildford
and Midland
districts that was much needed at the time.
In 1994, the highway was extended 2 km further southwards from Tonkin Highway
to Welshpool Road. Following 7 years in hiatus, work recommenced, and in 2001 a new 4 km southwestern extension known as stage 4 was completed from Welshpool Road to the purpose-built Kenwick Link (an Albany Highway
bypass built in 1998) - most of which replaced the overtaxed William Street in Beckenham
. Work on the 3 km long stage 5 was undertaken simultaneously with stage 4, bringing the highway to Nicholson Road in 2002.
Stage 6, a 5 km extension from Nicholson Road to South Street was completed in 2004, with stage 7 being announced shortly afterwards. The 5 km stage 7 extension from South Street to Kwinana Freeway
was completed in 2006, and represents the highway's current southwestern terminus.
The 19km of road built since 1994 between Tonkin Highway and Kwinana Freeway, is to a freeway standard. It may in the future be upgraded to a freeway classification.
towards Fremantle, through South Fremantle along Marine Terrace and then north to connect with Stirling Highway
and the Port of Fremantle. As part of the plan, in 1974 Stirling Highway
was extended from its then terminus north of the Swan River
southwards to Canning Highway
.
A narrow 4 km strip of land immediately south of this intersection was proclaimed for further road construction, but as it was not part of the original Stephenson Plan it was occupied by housing built before the time of Stephenson. Over a period of approximately 20 years, Main Roads Western Australia procured most of the land in question for the future road. In 1985, the first kilometre of this road was constructed, which extended Stirling Highway
southwards from Canning Highway
to Leach Highway (known as High Street west of Carrington Street)
. The remaining 3 km strip of land south of High Street
then became known as the Fremantle Eastern Bypass.
At the southern end of the proposed Fremantle Eastern Bypass, an 8 km east-west road reservation was proclaimed. This became known as Roe Highway stage 8. This land however was lightly built up and much of it remained as urban bushland throughout the late 20th century. The Roe Highway stage 8 reservation was intended to be the final link of a major urban ring-road, as originally envisioned by Stephenson.
However, there were problems with the proposed link, a product of the changes made by governments since Stephenson's original plan. This included the deletion of the original inner Fremantle section and the proclaiming of the Fremantle Eastern Bypass. Some residents of Fremantle
strongly objected to the proposed 4-lane dual carriageway Fremantle Eastern Bypass, claiming it would divide the area, damage urban woodland and impact on 3 nearby schools. Also, the proposed Roe Highway stage 8 would cut between North Lake and Bibra Lake
, a location considered of high environmental value as a wetlands. The Environmental Protection Authority in its report on the proposed Roe Highway Stage 8 confirmed the high conservation status of the Beeliar Wetlands and the negative impacts a highway would have on the wetlands.
With a change of state governments
in 2001, the planned Fremantle Eastern Bypass / Roe Highway stage 8 was cancelled, with a commitment by the government to sell the land reserved for the Fremantle Eastern Bypass. In doing this, the government put forward a '6-point plan' to cope with the anticipated growth of heavy vehicle traffic in and out of the Port of Fremantle, which included plans for better usage of rail, more efficient usage of trucks and a new deepwater container port near Rockingham
. As promised, the Fremantle Eastern Bypass land was sold for a total of $17 million. These funds were then spent on a new grade separated interchange at the intersection of Leach Highway
and Orrong Road in Welshpool
.
During the period for public submissions on the planned cancellation and sell-off, City of Melville residents opposed the planhttp://www.wapc.wa.gov.au/Publications/fig4.pdf?id=466 as the proposed Fremantle Eastern Bypass / Roe Highway stage 8 would have removed most trucks from Leach Highway
, which, although classified as a state highway, travels through a number of residential suburbs. On the other hand the move was generally supported by Fremantle
residents including the local MP, and also those concerned by the potential negative impact the proposed road would have on Bibra Lake wetlands.
As part of the funding arrangement for Roe Highway stages 6 and 7, the federal government
, which provided some of the funding for those two stages, has stipulated that the Roe Highway stage 8 reservation is to be retained.
Following a change in state governments
in September 2008, planning work has now commenced on an extension of the Roe Highway from Kwinana Freeway
to Stock Road http://www.mainroads.wa.gov.au/BuildingRoads/Projects/UrbanProjects/Roe/Pages/roe.aspx. As yet, there is no timeframe for construction.
