You can widen that section of the freeway as much as you could widen the GFF tunnel (none), but like the GFF tunnel, the emergency stopping lane can be used as an additional traffic lane under the managed motorway scenario above.The present traffic problems with the existing Roe highway/Kwinana freeway intersection relate to capacity constraints to the south. That's being addressed southbound with the Kwinana carriageway widening under way. Northbound will also have to be done at some point.The current Roe highway/Kwinana freeway intersection is certainly a nightmare is in terms of design options to extend Roe Highway further west. You can see from the following link the number of bridges that have to be built for Roe8 and utilise the existing bridge. That's the northermost of the 3 bridges shown going over the Kwinana Freeway.http://www.southmetroconnect.com.au/wp-content/uploads/60100953-215J-CI-DRG-0027-RevB.pdf
