  • 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.

  • Mr Dean Nalder GATEWAY WA PROJECT G
    Extract from Hansard [ASSEMBLY — Thursday, 16 June 2016] p3582b-3583a Mrs Glenys Godfrey; Mr Dean Nalder GATEWAY WA PROJECT — TRAFFIC NOISE Grievance MRS G.J. GODFREY (Belmont) [9.29 am]: My grievance this morning is to the Minister for Transport. Gateway WA was designed to cater for an expected doubling by 2030 of both passenger air travel and freight and container transport in the Kewdale area. The project also helped by addressing some of the state’s most accident-prone intersections. The Gateway WA project began in 2013 and was funded with $676 million in federal government funds and $310 million from the state government. The Gateway WA project is to date the largest road project undertaken by Main Roads and I was pleased to attend the official opening in April this year along with the Prime Minister, Hon Malcom Turnbull, MP; the federal Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Hon Darren Chester, MP; the state Minister for Transport, Hon Dean Nalder, MLA; and the federal member for Swan, Steve Irons, MP. The Gateway project has produced some impressive statistics—165 lane kilometres of road constructed, 460 000 tonnes of asphalt laid, 21 kilometres of principal shared path built for cyclists and pedestrians, the planting of over one million plants, approximately 1 000 people working on the project at its peak, 11 bridges built, four new interchanges constructed, seven intersection upgrades, the widening of Tonkin Highway to six lanes between Great Eastern Highway and Roe Highway, and the upgrade of Leach Highway to an expressway standard from Orrong Road to Perth Airport.

  • Sustainability Report
    Annual Sustainability Report – Gateway WA June 2016 Annual Sustainability Reporting Period Covering July 2015 to June 2016 Template for Major Projects with IS commitments This reporting template is to be used as a basis for a MRWA major project to produce a stand-alone sustainability report. While these indicators are a basis to what the report should include the author should be aware that they produce a report targeted at the intended report audience (it is linked to MRWA's Annual and Sustainability Report) and it should include all information necessary so that it can be read as a stand-alone report. This report is also an opportunity for the project to showcase its sustainability credentials and strengthen the project partners reputation for sustainable development. The indicators below are loosely based on the indicators of the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) v4. Main Roads encourages the use of GRI principles when developing a public sustainability report for a major project and many of the indicators can be explained or defined further by referring to the information and guidance available via the GRI website. Data from the monthly reporting should also be considered for inclusion in the reporting. Project Name Gateway WA Topic What to report?
