About this cycle path

The Roe Highway PSP is a 28 km sealed cycle route offering a direct, challenging commute or long-distance ride through Perth's urban and semi-urban landscape. This isn't a leisure loop—it's built for distance and speed, linking inner suburbs via a dedicated path beside the highway corridor. Suited to experienced cyclists comfortable with sustained riding and traffic-adjacent sections.

Highlights

  • 28 km sealed commute route for experienced riders
  • Direct Perth suburban corridor connection
  • Asphalt surface suitable for road and hybrid bikes
  • Challenging distance and pace demands fitness
  • Efficient transport alternative to car travel

What to expect

Mostly flat to gently rolling asphalt path running parallel to Roe Highway through suburban Perth. Signposting and line markings guide cyclists; sections run close to traffic, so road awareness is essential. Minimal shade in open stretches; some tree cover in residential areas. Surface is smooth and well-maintained, designed for sustained cruising speed rather than technical riding.

Good to know

  • Open to cyclists
  • Firm/surfaced — more accessible going

Carry water for the full distance. Summer heat and sun exposure demand a hat, sunscreen and hydration plan. Morning or late-afternoon rides avoid peak heat. Check weather before long rides; this is an exposed route. Suitable for road bikes and hybrid cycles with good tyres. Best ridden autumn through spring when temperatures are cooler.
