Location

Veitch Road and Victoria Road, Pelican Point Road and Victoria Road, Osborne.

Jobs created

200 jobs per year for the life of the project.

Funding

$100 million commitment jointly funded by the South Australian and Australian governments (50:50).

About the project

The northern Lefevre Peninsula is one of the key economic growth areas in South Australia, supporting key industries including the defence expansion in Osborne.

It's expected that vehicles using the Victoria Road and Pelican Point Road junction will triple in volume by 2030. With increasing traffic demand, the current road network will not cater for future road use.

To accommodate this growth, we are upgrading the road network to make sure it continues to operate safely and efficiently.

What's happening

Upgrades will include:

• a realignment and upgrade of the junction of Victoria Road and Pelican Point Road
• upgrades to the Victoria Road and Veitch Road junction
• improved bike lanes and footpaths and new landscaping adjacent to the upgrades
• new LED road lighting, line marking and drainage.
