Millhouse Road and Verbana Drive Intersection upgrade

(from swanengage.swan.wa.gov.au )
The City are currently exploring options to upgrade the intersection of Millhouse Road and Verbana Drive.

Intersection modifications such as a “no right turn” from Millhouse Road onto Verbana Drive are recommended to improve traffic safety and flow at this intersection.

Let’s work together to create a safer traffic environment for our community.

Have your say until August 21, 2024

Project Background


There have been 14 crashes reported in Main Roads WA crash records at this intersection between 2019-2023. The most common type of crashes at this intersection are rear-end and right turn-through crashes. The treatment proposed would be very effective in reducing the likelihood of these crashes.

Based on the latest 2016 and 2020 traffic counts, the traffic volume at this intersection has significantly increased by 26%. The traffic volume is expected to further increase when the City obtains 2024 traffic counts. You can view the increase below:
