ALBANY HIGHWAY–MENANG DRIVE — INTERCHANGE
1226. Hon Dr STEVE THOMAS to the Leader of the House
representing the Minister for Transport:
I refer to the approval given to
Main Roads WA to construct the Albany ring-road and the minister's
answer to question without notice 1122 answered on 16 November 2022.
(1) Can the minister please define the geometric
realignments to the location proposal area made to encompass ramp 3 at
the Menang Drive and Albany Highway graded interchange, including maps of the
realignment?
(2) When were the geometric
realignments made?
(3) What approval was sought and
granted for the geometric realignments?
''Geometric'' is a hard
word to say!

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) The geometric
realignments were made to accommodate the reorientated grade separation, such
that Menang Drive passed over the top of Albany Highway.
(2) They were made in mid-2020.
(3) No additional approvals were
required.
