The WA Government is seeking community feedback on its long-term Outer Harbour plan for Perth’s future freight, trade, logistics, cruise shipping and defence needs.
The Westport Taskforce today released Westport: Preparing for the Strategy – the State Government’s first discussion paper towards delivering its Outer Harbour vision.
In releasing its first discussion paper, the taskforce is inviting stakeholders to join the conversation on key factors that need to be investigated in the development of the Westport Strategy.
The taskforce is also seeking to capture any relevant existing information or work undertaken as part of previous studies. This will help build its evidence base which will inform where additional technical investigations are required.
Stakeholders and the community can get involved in the process by reading the discussion paper, completing the feedback survey and registering for project updates.
Feedback on the discussion paper will be accepted until 5pm, Wednesday January 31, 2018 and can be submitted by visiting http://www.transport.wa.gov.au/westport
A consultation summary will be made available at the end of February 2018. It will summarise the comments received and outline the updated Westport methodology.
