(a) (i)-(ii) As the Member has previously been advised by Main Roads, delays to the project have occurred as a result of difficulties in scheduling various service relocations. This matter is not within Main Roads control and the works cannot be completed until Western Power and the Water Authority's services are relocated.
(b) A definitive completion date cannot be established until the service relocations have been completed. However, Main Roads will ensure the roadworks and traffic signal installation are carried out expeditiously following completion of the service relocations by others.
