Rockingham Road is a major road between Fremantle and Kwinana in the southern suburbs of Perth and is part of Australia's National Highway 1 between Munster, where it meets Stock Road, and Kwinana.

The first part of Rockingham Road is a main road and suburban distributor that goes from the southern edge of Fremantle into Hamilton Hill and Spearwood, passing the Phoenix Park shopping centre and the offices of the City of Cockburn. It then leaves the urban area (but not the metropolitan area).

After becoming Highway 1, Rockingham Road acquires a very wide median strip - at one point the northbound and southbound lanes are 180 metres apart. The road then passes the small towns of Wattleup and Hope Valley before entering the Kwinana heavy industrial area in Naval Base and Kwinana Beach.

After the intersection with Mandurah Road it changes name to Patterson Road and continues on to the city of Rockingham.
