The RAC represents all road users on the WA Road Safety Council and has strong alliances with local government, Main Roads WA (MRWA) and community road safety organisations. Having a safe road environment is important for all road users because the right infrastructure can be the difference between a fatal crash and a minor collision. Last year on average one person died on WA roads nearly every two days. The RAC’s Risky Roads campaign is WA’s biggest public infrastructure survey and is undertaken to provide a snapshot of community perceptions, insight for road authorities and assist in identifying trends in traffic flow, infrastructure and safety. The 2014 campaign ran during April and May, providing Western Australians’ the opportunity to express their views and nominate sub-standard roads and intersections throughout the state.

    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.

  • Vehicle Access Plans
    CITY OF BELMONT Vehicle Access Plans Date of Publication 17/12/2014 Under the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) Metropolitan Region Scheme and the City of Belmont’s Local Planning Scheme main arterial roads have been classified as either ‘Primary Regional Roads’ and ‘Other Regional Roads’. ‘Primary Regional Road’ (red road) is defined as a top level network. These types of roads carry high traffic volumes over long distances to, from, and across the urban and regional areas. Examples of this road type are Great Eastern Highway, Leach Highway and Tonkin Highway. Main Roads Western Australia is the determining authority on matters involving primary regional roads and provides feedback to Council on matters involving lots abutting the road reserve. ‘Other Regional Road’ (blue road) carries traffic between different industrial, commercial, and residential areas and link these cells to the primary network. Examples of this road type are Belgravia Street, Fairbrother Street, Abernethy Road, Orrong Road. The Department for Planning and Infrastructure is the determining authority on matters involving primary regional roads and provide feedback to Council on matters involving lots abutting the road reserve. What is a Vehicle Access Plan? A vehicle access plan provides an alternative access to properties that abut a primary or regional road reserve to allow for the safe and permeable movement of traffic and pedestrians. When is a vehicle access plan required? Where residential land abuts a regional road reserve (ie., Abernethy Road, Orrong Road etc), access to that regional road is only permitted for a single house. In order to achieve redevelopment of the residential properties abutting a regional road, the adoption of a vehicle access plan is required by the local government or by the WAPC.
