  • MISSINGPIECES New Museum WA Completed: by 2020 Asset: Museum and Cultural Space Capacity: 23,000M² Investment: $430 Million (Public)
    MISSING PIECES The Perth Cable Car APRIL 2016 Perth Cable Car Artist Impression – Commissioned by Tourism Council WA DESTINATION PERTH Developing Perth’s Visitor Economy DESTINATION PERTH Perth is in the midst of a once in a generation investment in public and private tourism assets. This investment will transform the city into a global destination and gateway to Western Australia. Piece by piece this investment boom is removing the constraints on tourism growth. From hotel rooms to stadium seats, Perth is undergoing a major upgrade in capacity and building world-class venues, precincts and facilities. KEY PIECES The key new pieces of Destination Perth are: • Perth Arena • New Museum WA • Elizabeth Quay & Major Precincts • Perth Stadium • Crown Perth • Bars & Restaurants • New Hotels • Perth Airport • Natural Assets While each tourism asset brings new capacity to Perth, it is the combined synergy of these assets that will make Perth a global tourism destination. As these new pieces fall into place, Perth’s transformation into a global destination accelerates. MISSING PIECES The multi-billion dollar investment underway in tourism infrastructure is building capacity for increased tourism. However, to realise this tourism growth, Perth must also invest in the smaller projects that will attract visitors and drive demand for the new restaurants, hotels, venues and precincts. New demand drivers are the missing pieces needed to complete Destination Perth. The three missing pieces are: • The Perth Cable Car – to create a signature experience; • Perth Convention & Exhibition Centre Expansion – to increase business events and delegates; • Branding, Marketing and Events – to fill the restaurants, hotels, venues and precincts.

  • ELIZABETH QUAY WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT – ISLAND VEHICLE ACCESS BRIDGE, PERTH, WA Brian Lord, Arup Pty Ltd, Australia ABSTRACT
    Small Bridges Conference, Melbourne, Victoria, 2015 ELIZABETH QUAY WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT – ISLAND VEHICLE ACCESS BRIDGE, PERTH, WA Brian Lord, Arup Pty Ltd, Australia ABSTRACT Elizabeth Quay is a development by the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority (MRA) for the State Government of Western Australia to revitalise the city of Perth and return the city’s focus to the Swan River. The development covers nearly ten hectares of riverfront land with a 2.7 hectare inlet surrounded by a split level promenade with a garden island located within the inlet, providing additional public amenity. The managing contractor for the development is Leighton Broad with ARM Architecture as the lead architect and Arup the lead structural design engineer. This paper outlines some of the key issues and considerations in the both the design and construction of the Vehicle Bridge. The Vehicle Bridge is an approximately 15m single span simply supported bridge over the Elizabeth Quay inlet. The bridge is designed to provide a flowing access to the island, transitioning from the paved promenade to the garden island. The bridge allows for pedestrian movement from the eastern promenade to the man made island in the inlet, access for services to the island, with an allowance for service vehicle loading and includes garden beds. The key challenge was to design a durable bridge with abstract geometry, garden beds and co-ordinated architectural features that could be constructed efficiently, potentially over water and integrated with the waterfront development edge wall. INTRODUCTION Elizabeth Quay is a development being delivered by the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority (MRA) on behalf of the State Government of Western Australia, to revitalise the city of Perth and return the city’s focus to the Swan River.
