This investment will design and construct high quality active transport infrastructure that will provide safe and convenient access for cyclists and pedestrians in and around the Perth CBD.
A key component of the investment is the Swan River Bridge project, that will deliver a new bridge across the Swan River for pedestrians and cyclists, located to the south-west of the existing Causeway Bridge. The new 6 metre wide pedestrian and cyclist bridge will provide safe, high-quality infrastructure that encourages more people to ride and walk to and from the city.
The investment will also fund a series of active transport projects across the Perth CBD:
The benefits of this program include improved road safety for road users, and reduced congestion and improved travel times.
The Australian Government has committed $57.25 million towards the Perth CBD Transport Plan under the Infrastructure Investment Program.
The projects are currently in the planning phase.
