Beeliar Drive is a major arterial road in the southwestern part of the Perth Metropolitan Area. It provides an important and unbroken east-west link between Kwinana Freeway and Stock Road providing access to residential developments in Beeliar, Yangebup and Lake Coogee in the west to commercial and industrial development in Cockburn Central, Jandakot and Success in the east. It is one of Perth's more recent arterial road constructions with development of the road occurring between the early 1990s and early 2020s.
It commences at a roundabout with Rockingham Road in Lake Coogee as a continuation of Mayor Road and follows a gently curving pattern reflecting its original Noongar name in a due easterly direction 7.7 kilometres (4.8 mi) to terminate at a roundabout interchange with Armadale Road/Solomon Road in Jandakot. The road is signed as State Route 14 east of the Spearwood Avenue roundabout. As of 2021, Beeliar Drive is a four-lane dual carriageway for the vast majority of its length; the section west of Stock Road is two lanes while the section between Kwinana Freeway and Wentworth Parade is six lanes.
