Drumpellier Drive, Transport corridor in Perth, Australia
Drumpellier Drive is a transport corridor through northeastern Perth with dual carriageways in the south and single lanes in the northern section. The road extends roughly 10 kilometers and connects several residential areas.
The southern section originated as an unsealed road near Caversham Airfield during World War II. Major improvements took place in the late 1980s.
The road takes its name from Drumpellier Country Park in Scotland, the birthplace of James Stirling, Western Australia's first governor. This connection links the area to the region's colonial past.
Traffic speed limits vary by section: the southern parts allow 70 kilometers per hour while the northern area permits 80 kilometers per hour. Drivers should note changing speed zones as modifications have been made at several intersections.
The Morley-Ellenbrook railway line construction between 2022 and 2024 required extensive modifications at several intersections along the route. These works significantly shaped the road network and traffic patterns in this area.
