City Of Perth Draft Transport Strategy

I take this opportunity to thank the City of Perth’s staff for their presentation to a joint meeting of our Reshaping Working Group and the Steering Committee of our Get a Move On! transport and congestion project. Information on the Committee’s Reshaping Working Group and our Get a Move On! project and Steering Committee is available on our website at www.committeeforperth.com.au.

This submission has been prepared following the City’s presentation and in consultation with the groups mentioned above.

It is our view that the City of Perth’s draft Transport Strategy is a bold yet realistic document that seeks to address a number of challenges the central area is likely to face over coming decades. We congratulate the City and all those involved for producing a strategy and plan that seeks to deliver integrated and prioritised mobility solutions to improve movement across all modes within the central area.
