Version Board Approval Ministerial Approval Published Bruce Manning 1.0 23 February 2015 8 April 2015 29 October 2015 Chief Executive Officer Great Southern Development Commission February 2015 © Great Southern Development Commission 2015 GREAT SOUTHERN REGIONAL INVESTMENT BLUEPRINT PAGE ii FOREWORD Beneficial development of a region arises from sound investment decisions made with a clear understanding of strategic objectives and long-term consequences. Through this document, the Great Southern Development Commission (GSDC) and Regional Development Australia–Great Southern (RDA-GS) aim to provide a blueprint for the future development of the Great Southern that will guide and inform investment decisions to benefit current and future residents of the region. People of the Great Southern hold rich and varied aspirations for their personal lives, their families and their communities. Ambitions and plans that emerge at personal and grass-root levels form the character of communities and local governments. Together these shape the activity and enterprise of the region, with all its requirements for infrastructure and services. As a Western Australian State Government agency with a leadership role in the economic development of the Great Southern, GSDC Chair Peter Rundle the GSDC is committed to ensuring that regional growth serves the aspirations of the people who choose to live and work in the region. RDA-GS works to the same end from the Commonwealth Government perspective. From local characteristics to global trends, the Great Southern Regional Investment Blueprint examines the context of the regional economy and identifies ways in which its people and institutions can progress. Outside factors that drive or inhibit the regional economy are assessed and key actions are identified to chart an optimal course for the region’s future. Setting up such a framework for growing the Great Southern is a welcome task for the GSDC and RDA-GS, taken as a significant responsibility on behalf of the people of a precious part of Western Australia. The Great Southern has a proud Noongar history and holds the heart of the European settler story in this state. It is a beautiful and benevolent area that naturally nurtures a strong sense of regional identity in its residents. Through the Great Southern Regional Investment Blueprint, the GSDC and RDA-GS are committed to continuing the sustainable development of the Great Southern.

    Federal priorities for Western Australia April 2013 Keeping Western Australians on the move. Federal priorities for Western Australia Western Australia’s rapid population growth coupled with its strongly performing economy is creating significant challenges and pressures for the State and its people. Nowhere is this more obvious than on the State’s road and public transport networks. Kununurra In March 2013 the RAC released its modelling of projected growth in motor vehicle registrations which revealed that an additional one million motorised vehicles could be on Western Australia’s roads by the end of this decade. This growth, combined with significant developments in Derby and around the Perth CBD, is placing increasing strain on an already Great Northern Hwy Broome Fitzroy Crossing over-stretched transport network.

  • WHEATBELT SNAPSHOT SERIES: LAND BASED TRANSPORT Version 2 July 2014
    WHEATBELT SNAPSHOT SERIES: LAND BASED TRANSPORT Version 2 July 2014 PURPOSE OF DOCUMENT This document summarises the Wheatbelt Development Commission’s (WDC) understanding of transport infrastructure issues in the Wheatbelt. It highlights strategic issues for the region and proposes solutions to these problems. It is a working document, and stakeholders are encouraged to contact the WDC if they identify any errors. FACTS The Wheatbelt contains major interregional and interstate transport linkages such as the Great Northern Highway, Great Eastern Highway, Great Southern Highway, Brand Highway and the Albany Highway; and the East West Rail link. There is 45,069km(1) of road in the Wheatbelt servicing a mix of local, tourist and freight traffic (see Appendix 1 for details). An integrated land transport network is a vital aspect of the Wheatbelt economy. Sustainable, effective and efficient transport networks are critical to foster commercial enterprise and safe domestic use.
