A big intersection upgrade is coming to Osborne Park! This project will make the area safer and more accessible, helping Main Street Centre become a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly spot for the community and small businesses. The City has collaborated with Main Roads Western Australia on extensive improvements to the busy intersection of Main, Hutton and Royal streets in a project fully funded through the Government of Western Australia. The works are scheduled to start in late January and take about eight months to complete, with access to the Main Street Centre maintained throughout the project and any necessary road closures carried out at night.
