Robertson Drive, also known as the Bunbury Bypass,[2] Bunbury Ring Road,[3] or Bunbury Inner Ring Road,[4] is a 4.9-kilometre-long (3.0 mi)[1] road in Bunbury, Western Australia. It forms a partial ring road around Bunbury, allowing highway traffic to bypass the city centre. The road connects four highway routes that radiate out Bunbury: Forrest Highway to the north, South Western Highway north-eastbound and south-east bound, and Bussell Highway to the south.[1]

A dual carriageway along the route was completed in 1992.[3]

Robertson Drive is controlled by Main Roads Western Australia,[5] which internally designates it as Highway H57 Forrest Highway (north of South Western Highway), H9 South Western Highway (for the central section), and H43 Bussell Highway (south of South Western Highway).[1]
