Plan ahead for temporary traffic changes near Perth Park Nov 2026

11 November 2026

Construction activity will bring temporary traffic changes to the Burswood Peninsula during November and December.

Road and park users are encouraged to plan ahead as upcoming Perth Park construction will require temporary lane and road closures, traffic management and some out-of-hours work.

Businesses and attractions across the Burswood Peninsula will remain open and accessible throughout the work.

Victoria Park Drive: 9 to 13 November

Temporary traffic management will be in place while underground utilities are located.

During this period:

  • the turning lane from Victoria Park Drive onto Roger MacKay Drive will be closed
  • a temporary pedestrian detour will be provided through the closed lane
  • access to Roger MacKay Drive will remain available from the left lane.

Tower crane assembly: Sunday 15 November

A tower crane will be assembled on the Perth Park construction site between 7am and 5pm.

The work must occur on a Sunday because a large exclusion zone is required to safely undertake lifting activities. Before 9am, work will be limited to lower-noise activities, with additional measures used to minimise noise throughout the day.

Camfield Drive closure: 7am on 16 November to 7pm on 8 December

Camfield Drive will be closed between Roger MacKay Drive and the Crown Towers access road while road reconstruction and realignment work is completed.

Access to Burswood Park and nearby businesses will be maintained via a signed detour using Roger MacKay Drive and Victoria Park Drive.

Pedestrian access will also be maintained, although lane closures on the path and temporary crossings will be required and managed by traffic controllers, at all times.

Subject to regulatory approval, roadwork is proposed at night from 16 to 21 November.

The work will include road-surface removal and truck movements associated with the delivery, removal and stockpiling of construction materials.

Quieter equipment, restricted work practices and continuous noise monitoring will be used to reduce impacts on nearby residents and businesses wherever practicable.

Motorists should allow additional travel time and follow temporary signage and directions from traffic controllers.
