    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.

  • Graham Farmer Freeway, a Saviour of Sorts
    February 15, 2016 Graham Farmer Freeway, a saviour of sorts Over budget, underground, outdated 1960’s thinking to reduce traffic congestion, a threat to the environment and Northbridge’s character and community. These are just some of the numerous criticisms that were levelled at the more than $400 million Graham Farmer Freeway and the Northbridge Tunnel. Controversial from the start, the Graham Farmer Freeway is the focus of the latest What We Thought Would Kill Us case study, released today by the Committee for Perth. “I don’t think the people of Perth could imagine getting around the city and the metropolitan area without the Graham Farmer Freeway and the Northbridge Tunnel,” said Committee for Perth CEO, Marion Fulker. “Supporters argued it would provide a balanced transport future by promoting walking and urban renewal in Northbridge, help connect the city to the Swan River and most importantly, reduce congestion. “While the east-west Graham Farmer Freeway lets cars bypass the city centre, it hasn’t prevented an increase in congestion in and around the CBD and on the freeways. But this is hardly surprising, given the number of vehicles using the freeway has far outstripped predictions. “Prior to opening in April 2000, it was forecast that approximately 80,000 vehicles would use the bypass by 2021. In reality, the freeway carried between 60,000 and 80,000 vehicles a day, in its first few months. Today, approximately 115,000 vehicles use it every day. To cope with demand, in 2013, extra lanes were added in both directions on the Freeway and the Northbridge Tunnel, and a new on-ramp was added to the Mitchell Freeway northbound.

R WESTERN Since 2008 the Liberal-led Government has focused on improving the efficiency of our existing transport network to ensure Western Australians can get from A to B as quickly, cheaply and easily as possible. Between 2008 and 2019 the Liberal-led Government will have spent or allocated $15.5 billion on transport infrastructure, creating more than 23,000 jobs across major metropolitan projects. Fast Facts Since 2008 the Liberal-led Government has: • Completed a jointly funded $77.5 million upgrade of the Kwinana Freeway between Roe Highway and Russell Road southbound allowing more than 52,000 motorists each day to enjoy a four-lane freeway between Roe Highway and Armadale Road. • Widened Kwinana Freeway to three lanes in each direction between Leach and Roe highways. The $58 million project was jointly funded by the Commonwealth. • Provided an extra lane in each direction for the Graham Farmer Freeway Tunnel, and built an additional lane on Mitchell Freeway northbound from Graham Farmer Freeway to Hutton Street at a cost of $57 million. • Constructed a third northbound lane on the Mitchell Freeway for 7.2km between Hepburn Avenue and Hodges Drive at a cost of $30 million. • Provided $9 million for Kwinana Freeway resurfacing on various sections from the Glen Iris rail tunnel to Safety Bay Road and the Ennis Avenue Ramps as well as associated ramps and overpasses.

  • Guildford Road from East Parade to Tonkin Highway
    GUILDFORD ROAD FROM EAST PARADE TO TONKIN HIGHWAY Reason for this Submission This proposal (MRSA 1310/41, the "Proposal") includes a part of Guildford Road that passes through Mount Lawley, one of the suburbs of primary interest to the Mount Lawley Society Inc. Although the Proposal also includes suburbs outside our area of primary interest (east of Third Avenue), it actually is of great interest and concern to the Society because: 1. It affects character buildings, particularly in Maylands where there are significant historic buildings that define the local community. 2. It requires resumption (partial or full) of numerous properties. 3. It offers an opportunity to improve the safety of traffic, cyclists and pedestrians. 4. It offersan opportunity to improve traffic flows on the main distributor and to lessen "rat-running" on neighbouring residential streets. 5. It offers the opportunity for underground power and increase tree plantings along medians and footpaths The Society requests that the Proposal is reviewed to address Items 1 and 2 above. East Parade -Guildford Road Intersection The Society recommends that the improvements to Guildford Road at East Parade are accompanied by improvements to the Mount Lawley Subway constructed in the 1900's. The current situation of the Subway is hazardous for vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians. Safety concerns will be further exacerbated once the Perth Stadium commences operation (due to the increase in pedestrian movements). Pedestrian access movement through this Subway is needed and could be solved with a widening of the subway or a dedicated pedestrian/cyclist tunnel to better connect the east and west sides of Mount Lawley.
