  • Proposal for the Creation of a Regional Park on the Northern Limits of Perth City
    Proposal for the creation of a regional park on the northern limits of Perth City Friends of Moore River Estuary (FOMRE) 1 June 2019 1 Overview It is proposed that a new park be formed encompassing the area between the northern limits of Perth’s urban development at Two Rocks and the south bank of the Moore River estuary, bounded to the west by the Indian Ocean and to the east by Indian Ocean Drive. The proposed park forms part of the traditional lands of the Yued people. This proposal summarises some of the potential outcomes that would arise following consolidation of the existing reserves, Unallocated Crown Land and the small parcel of currently undeveloped private land into a single park. The land in question is unique in its proximity to the limits of metropolitan Perth to the south and the Moore River estuary to the north. The land contains a number of threatened ecological subcommunities (TECs) of the Swan Coastal Plain and includes portions of the Gnangara, Gingin and Yanchep Groundwater Management areas. As urban areas have expanded on the Swan Coastal Plain, a great deal of biodiversity has been lost (Hill et al. 1996). The unification of this area into a single park would have multiple benefits for protecting the remaining biodiversity as well as enhancing opportunities for nature-based cultural and recreational tourism. It could also create employment opportunities through the Indigenous Ranger Program. The proposed park will complement Yanchep National Park, Neerabup Regional Park, Neerabup Nature Reserve and the regionally significant remnant bushland identified under the Bush Forever program (Government of Western Australia 2000).
