The Broome Cape Leveque Road upgrades include construction of a roundabout at the intersection with Broome Road, and upgrading two community access roads.

The Broome Cape Leveque Road is the main transport link through the Dampier Peninsula and is susceptible to flooding, forcing it to be closed during wet season and isolating communities. Once project improvements are completed, road users will have all weather access and benefit from the safety improvements. 

Works are underway, with further shoulder sealing between Pender Bay Road and Ardyaloon expected to be competed in 2025.

Fined more information on the Main Roads WA project here.
