Please Read Before Viewing Please Read Before Viewing The following document is the full draft version of the Dongara-Geraldton-Northampton Corridor Alignment Selection Report, written for the purpose of identifying a preferred investigation corridor for further planning activities, including community consultation. The report has not been altered in any way since its provision to the Minister for Transport in September 2020, and no sections of it have been omitted in this presentation. Alignment Selection work is normally assessed through desktop assessments, which provide a reasonable understanding of the constraints, issues and opportunities. The desktop work is used to progress stakeholder discussions to test the validity of shortlisted options, leading to landholder and community input. This community and landholder input is a critical step in the process to fill a number of gaps with regard to constraints/issues and assessment of the options. Only after consultation has been incorporated into the planning process can alignment selection be finalised, allowing for more detailed planning (including site investigations). The report was written on the information available at the time of writing. Main Roads’ current engagement activities have already revealed a number of further constraints and opportunities that require further investigation, which may influence the alignment of the final recommended corridor.

  • Agamid Lizards of the Genera Caimanops, Physignathus and Diporiphora in Western Australia and Northern Territory
    Rec. West. Aust. Mus., 1974, 3 (2) AGAMID LIZARDS OF THE GENERA CAIMANOPS, PHYSIGNATHUS AND DIPORIPHORA IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA AND NORTHERN TERRITORY G.M. STORR [Received 11 February 1974. Accepted 15 February 1974] ABSTRACT Caimanopsgen. novo is proposed for Diporiphora amphiboluroides Lucas & Frost. The following species and subspecies ofPhysignathus and Diporiphora are studied: P. longirostris (Boulenger), P. temporalis (Giinther), P. g. gilberti (Gray), P. g. centralis Loveridge, D. convergens nov., D. a. albilabris nov., D. a. sobria nov., D. b. bennettii (GraY), D. b. arnhemica nov., D. magna nov., D. lalliae nov., D. reginae Glauert, D. winneckei Lucas & Frost, D. b. bilineata Gray, D. b. margaretae nov., and D. superba novo INTRODUCTION Recent collections have made it increasingly clear that there are many more species of Diporiphora in the far north of Western Australia than previously believed. The main purpose of this paper is to define these additional species of Diporiphora. Because juvenile Physignathus have often been mistaken for Diporiphora, that genus has been included in this study, and so too has Caimanops gen. nov., whose single species was long placed in Diporiphora. Generally Western Australian species of reptiles seldom extend further east than about longitude 140o E. Brief study of Queensland material showed that Diporiphora and Physignathus were not exceptional in this respect and that most, if not all, specimens belonged to different species or subspecies. It therefore seemed unnecessary to include the Eastern States species in this account of the Western species. The three species of Physignathus and single species of Caimanops are strongly characterized, and their identification should present students with no problems.

  • Coastal Sediment Cells for the Mid-West Coast
    Department of Transport Coastal Sediment Cells for the Mid-West Coast Between the Moore River and Glenfield Beach, Western Australia Report Number: M 2014 07001 Version: 0 Date: September 2014 Recommended citation Stul T, Gozzard JR, Eliot IG and Eliot MJ (2014) Coastal Sediment Cells for the Mid-West Region between the Moore River and Glenfield Beach, Western Australia. Report prepared by Seashore Engineering Pty Ltd and Geological Survey of Western Australia for the Western Australian Department of Transport, Fremantle. The custodian of the digital dataset is the Department of Transport. Photographs used are from WACoast30. The Department of Transport acknowledges Bob Gozzard from Geological Survey of Western Australia for providing the images. Geological Survey of S e a s h o r e E n g i n e e r i n g Western Australia 2 Executive summary The aim of this report is to identify a hierarchy of sediment cells to assist planning, management, engineering, science and governance of the Mid-West coast. Sediment cells are spatially discrete areas of the coast within which marine and terrestrial landforms are likely to be connected through processes of sediment exchange, often described using sediment budgets. They include areas of sediment supply (sources), sediment loss (sinks), and the sediment transport processes linking them (pathways). Sediment transport pathways include both alongshore and cross-shore processes, and therefore cells are best represented in two-dimensions. They are natural management units with a physical basis and commonly cross jurisdictional boundaries. Sediment cells provide a summary of coastal data in a simple format and can be used to: 1.

  • Final Geraldton 2050 Cycling Strategy
    Department of Transport GERALDTON 2050 CYCLING STRATEGY 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Cities and towns with high levels of cycling enjoy a range of economic, environmental and social benefits. Not only is cycling proven to reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality, it also helps to create more vibrant and welcoming communities. Cycling can facilitate new forms of industry (such as cycle-tourism) and more generally, it enables people to live happier, healthier and more active lives. Fundamentally, increasing cycling mode share is about improving quality of life – something that is critical for attracting and retaining people in regional areas. The key to increasing cycling mode share is In developing this strategy, extensive consultation providing infrastructure which is not only safe has been undertaken with key stakeholders and and convenient, but also competitive against the local community. The consultation has helped other modes of transport. To achieve this, cycling to refine the overarching aims and objectives of needs to be prioritised ahead of other modes in the strategy, as well as clarify the community’s appropriate locations and integrated with adjoining expectations in terms of where key routes are land use. If we are serious about reducing car most needed and the requirements of different dependency and helping people make better user groups. transport choices in Geraldton, these priorities There are a number of opportunities to create need to be reflected in the way our communities world-class facilities in Geraldton. Major new are planned. road projects planned for the region should Over the past five years, the City of Greater enable the development of parallel pedestrian Geraldton (the City) has delivered a number of and cycling facilities.
