  • Federal Priorities for Western Australia April 2013 Keeping Western Australians on the Move
    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.

  • Regional Roads Risking Lives
    Tuesday 13 October 2015 Regional roads risking lives RAC has today released its 12 month Risky Roads campaign scorecard, revealing that work still needs to be done on some of WA’s most dangerous regional roads. RAC General Manager Corporate Affairs, Will Golsby, said the scorecard looked at the progress made on the roads that were nominated by the community as the State’s riskiest roads 12 months ago. “We acknowledge and welcome the construction underway on some of the regional roads identified, but we’re extremely concerned that that work on the rest has not commenced,” Mr Golsby said. Last year, the WA community nominated 70 percent of the State’s riskiest roads to be in regional WA, including Bussell Highway in Capel, Toodyay Road from Red Hill to Toodyay, Great Eastern Highway from Coolgardie to Southern Cross, Great Northern Highway in Bindi-Bindi, Bruce Rock-Merredin Road in Merredin, South Western Highway in Manjimup, Indian Ocean Drive in Lancelin and Coalfields Highway in Collie. The 12 month scorecard reveals that Bussell Highway in Capel remains unchanged with poor road quality and a lack of overtaking opportunities, Bruce Rock-Merredin Road in Merredin needs improvement of its poor road quality and width, and Indian Ocean Drive in Lancelin is in desperate need of construction to improve the quality of its road and provide better overtaking opportunities. “These results highlight the need for the State Government to deliver more funding, but the current State Budget only confirms a reduction in spending. “This is on top of the huge backlog in road maintenance which was identified in 2009 by the Auditor General, and estimated to be $800 million.
