If you have trouble reading this document and would like us to share the information with you in another way, please call Infrastructure WA on 08 6552 5229. Acknowledgment of Country Infrastructure WA acknowledges the traditional custodians throughout Western Australia and their continuing connection to the land, waters and community. We pay our respects to all members of the Aboriginal communities and their cultures – and to Elders both past and present. Within Western Australia, the term Aboriginal is used in preference to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, in recognition that Aboriginal people are the original inhabitants of Western Australia. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander may be referred to in the national context. 2 Infrastructure WA Introduction In developing Western Australia’s first 20-year State Infrastructure Strategy (Strategy), the role and needs of the regions are critically important. To assist in understanding each region, the following profiles have been developed, which should be read in conjunction with A Stronger Tomorrow, State Infrastructure Strategy Discussion Paper. These profiles provide high level summary information and are not intended to be a comprehensive overview of each region. Key challenges and opportunities have been identified, based on Infrastructure WA’s initial consideration and feedback from engagement with many regional stakeholders.
