PLANNING AND DESIGN FOR THE MUNJINA EAST GORGE SECTION OF THE GREAT NORTHERN HIGHWAY

The paper presents an insight into the complex interaction of design constraints imposed on the section of highway. The rugged terrain in the Hamersley Range National Park creates a major engineering challenge. The highway which descends from the ranges of the Fortescue Plain will offer one of the most exciting highway landscapes in Western Australia. (Author/TRRL)
