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.

    BORR Southern Section EPA Updated Referral Spprtng Doc Rev2

    Bunbury Outer Ring Road Southern Section Updated Environmental Referral Supporting Document and Additional Information BORR-02-RP-EN-0014 Rev 2 October 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Bunbury Outer Ring Road (BORR) is a planned Controlled Access Highway linking the Forrest Highway and Bussell Highway. BORR will be a high standard route for access to the Bunbury Port and facilitate proposed development to the east of the City of Bunbury. BORR provides an effective bypass of Bunbury for inter-regional traffic. The BORR Project comprises three sections: • ‘BORR Northern Section’ – Forrest Highway to Boyanup-Picton Road. • ‘BORR Central Section’ – Boyanup-Picton Road to South Western Highway, an existing four kilometre (km) section which was completed in May 2013, along with a three km extension of Willinge Drive southwards to South Western Highway. • ‘BORR Southern Section’ – South Western Highway (near Bunbury Airport) to Bussell Highway. The Commissioner of Main Roads Western Australia (Main Roads) is proposing to construct and operate the southern section of the BORR Project. Main Roads is referring the BORR Southern Section (the Proposal) to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) for a decision on assessment under Section 38 of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act). The purpose of this document is to provide information to support the decision on assessment of the Proposal. The Proposal includes the construction and operation of 10.5 km of freeway standard, dual carriageway southwest of South Western Highway (south of Bunbury Airport) to Bussell Highway and a 3 km regional distributor from Bussell Highway at Centenary Road southeast to a grade separated interchange at the western end of Lilydale Road.

    Tidal Wave of Construction and 1300 Jobs Heading for South Australia

    Tidal wave of construction and 1300 jobs heading for South Australia 11/10/2020 | Corey Wingard MP | More Jobs | Better Services A tidal wave of major construction is heading for South Australia with works starting on more than $1 billion worth of infrastructure projects within the next six months. The building boom kicks off this month and will support more than 1,300 jobs as the Marshall Government continues to build what matters to South Australians. Major construction begins on two of the biggest regional infrastructure projects ever undertaken in this state - the Port Wakeeld Overpass and Highway Duplication and the Joy Baluch AM Bridge Duplication Project. Showcasing a commitment to improving regional roads, next month shoulder sealing works will also begin on the Tod and Birdseye Highways. In metropolitan Adelaide, major construction works will start by the end of the year on the much anticipated upgrade of the intersection of Goodwood, Springbank and Daws Roads, as well as the Main North, Kings and McIntyre Roads Intersection Upgrade. Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Corey Wingard said these important projects will support our economy and deliver jobs at a time when our state needs it most will support our economy and deliver jobs at a time when our state needs it most. “The economic challenges our state is facing at the moment are unprecedented,” Minister Wingard said. “Getting major works started on infrastructure projects across South Australia will help keep the economy ring as we navigate our way through the COVID-19 pandemic. “Creating jobs is critical to our economic recovery and we’re delivering around 1,315 over the next six months in road infrastructure projects alone.

    Western Australia – Permits and Permissions Required to Access Indigenous and Other Lands, Including National Parks

    Western Australia – Permits and permissions required to access indigenous and other lands, including national parks General: Quite a number of transit permits for aboriginal lands in WA are able to be issued by the Aboriginal Lands Trust of WA. (N.B.: The Aboriginal Lands Trust has no involvement whatever in the issuing of permits for the Canning Stock Route – for Canning information and Permits see below under the heading of Canning Stock Route). The Trust is a part of the Department of Indigenous Affairs. Applications can be made on-line at www.dia.wa.gov.au and simply follow the prompts. The web site contains a lot of excellent information including maps showing the specific areas and tracks where Permits are required and whether the Trust or a Land Council issues them. The conditions under which permits can be gained via an automated on-line process are also explained. Once you log on to the web site, click on the “Entering Aboriginal Land” button on the left side of the Home Page and read all of the information under the nominated four (4) headings BEFORE applying on-line. The maps showing the tracks and whether DIA or a Land Council, etc., issues them can be found under the “Travel Information” heading. About half way down that page is a map of WA showing the Land Council areas; simply click on the area you want to visit. The Trust can be contacted at: The Permits Officer, Aboriginal Lands Trust, PO Box 7770, Cloisters Square, Perth, WA 6850. Telephone (08) 9235 8000 or Fax (08) 9235 8088.
