Cape Leveque Road Upgrade - Stage 3 SLK 25-102.6

Overview

The Main Roads Western Australia is proposing Cape Leveque Road upgrade. The Cape Leveque Road is located within the Shire of Broome and runs from the Broome Highway, east of the Broome townsite, to the northern Dampier Peninsula for a length of approximately 200 km. Various sections of the Cape Leveque Road have been upgraded to a sealed standard over the last ten years. The remaining 77.6 km of unsealed road (SLK 25 to 102.6) is to be constructed to a sealed standard over the next 3 to 4 years.

What happens next

Following the seven day public comment period and consideration of any comments received, the EPA will decide whether or not this proposal requires environmental impact assessment and, if so, what level of assessment will be applied.

The Chairman's decisions on level of assessment are released each Monday on the EPA's website.
