  • Decision to Commit Funding to the Perth Freight Link Project
    Chapter 4 Concerns raised by local governments and communities 4.1 This chapter discusses concerns about the Perth Freight Link raised by local governments and communities, and in particular addresses evidence concerning: • insufficient consultation on the project by the federal and state governments, especially with local governments, industry representatives, and the communities who would be affected the most; • the damage the Roe 8 extension could cause to local environmental, Indigenous and other heritage sites, as well as apparent irregularities in the overturning of previous environmental and heritage assessments; and • negative effects the project may have on local communities; and • some negative impacts the Freight Link would have for residents and businesses of Fremantle. Lack of consultation 4.2 The committee received evidence suggesting that the Commonwealth and state governments did not undertake appropriate or sufficient consultation about the Perth Freight Link with local governments, industry stakeholders and the communities who would be affected the most by the project. Local government and industry stakeholders 4.3 The Mayors of Fremantle, East Fremantle and Cockburn all told the committee their communities would be negatively affected by the Freight Link. All agreed that they first heard of the project through the media and had no contact with Main Roads WA until well after the Budget announcement had been made.1 Councillor Logan Howlett, Mayor of the City of Cockburn, reflected that the Freight Link was presented by the state government as the only potential option for transport infrastructure to support Fremantle Port: …the level of public consultation with regard to Roe 8 focused only on one option and that was to build Roe 8.
