Bussell Highway Duplication​​

What's happening

 Road construction is continuing where weather conditions are favourable.

The intersection of Sues Road and Bussell Highway remains closed with a detour available via Vasse Highway.

Periods of closures to the side roads impacted by the project will be required over the coming months, to facilitate tie ins of the local road network to the new dual carriageway. Appropriate detours will be in place during these times.

Visit our Travel Map for more information.

For the safety of all road users and road workers in the area, please follow detour signage and obey traffic management when travelling through the area. Plan ahead to avoid traffic delays.

Project Status

• The bridge at Ludlow River opened to traffic in October 2024 along with 3.1 km of new southbound carriageway, from the northern side of Ludlow River to north of Ruabon Road. Traffic has now been switched to the southbound carriageway with work to sections of the northbound carriageway underway.
• The section of southbound carriageway, from Ruabon Road to Sues Road, along with the Abba River Bridge, is expected to open to traffic in January 2025. Traffic will then be switched to this section of southbound carriageway to enable work on the northbound carriageway bridges to be completed.
• Completion of the final section of the southbound carriageway is expected in early 2025, which includes the Sues Road roundabout and Sabina River Bridge. Traffic will then be switched to this section of the southbound carriageway, to enable further work on the northbound carriageway to commence.
