Cross Road and Fullarton Road Intersection Upgrade

About the project

The Australian and South Australian Governments have jointly (50:50) committed $61 million to upgrade the Cross Road and Fullarton Road intersection. The project is expected to support approximately 65 jobs per year, averaged over the life of the construction period.

The Australian Government’s commitment is part of the Commonwealth Urban Congestion Fund. The State Government’s commitment was announced as part of the 2019-2020 State Budget, to bust congestion by upgrading a number of Metropolitan intersections. The State Government’s contribution addresses recommendations of the Keeping Metro Traffic Moving Report. The report identifies this intersection as a priority location for treatments that address road congestion and keep traffic flowing.

Construction of the upgrade is now complete with all lanes now fully open for use.

Work on the reconstruction of the historic Urrbrae Gatehouse in its new location is now complete, as the building prepares to serve the community for generations to come.
