While population growth brings enormous opportunities, it also increases demand on the State’s resources, social and physical infrastructure, services and natural environment. Strong economic and rapid population growth in the early part of this century has shown how important Perth’s transport system is.

The Perth and Peel sub-regional land use planning The integration of key centres with high quality public and infrastructure frameworks were developed by the transport networks is a fundamental principle of 2Western Australian Planning Commissions (WAPC), the frameworks.

Freight: The North-West sub-region’s economy is directly influenced by the efficiency of freight movements. The sub-region’s freight network is reliant on the regional road network to connect activity and industrial centres within and outside of the sub-region. These roads include the Mitchell Freeway, Neaves Road–Flynn Drive, Gnangara Road– Ocean Reef Road and a portion of the proposed Whiteman-Yanchep Highway, as shown in Figure 7.
