Project update

Barrett Street will reopen to traffic on Friday 16 August 2024.

Residents will notice changes along Barrett Street including:

  • New kerbing along the road surface
  • Upgraded road surface
  • A change in posted speed limit to 70 km/h

The pedestrian footpath will remain closed until final clearing permits are issued to enable a safe route of travel.

Street lighting design to enable slow points to be installed is currently underway.

An application to Main Roads WA has been submitted for line marking. This work occurs based on Main Roads schedule and therefore we are unable to provide an estimated completion date.

As part of this project the City will:

  • Install a footpath from Lakey Street to Balfour Street
