With an increase in major projects, visitor numbers and new river and land-based activities, the Perth Water Precinct is transforming.

Our Role

We have led the coordination and development of the Perth Water Precinct Plan in collaboration with the Perth Water Vision Group, comprised of the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (lead), City of South Perth and other State and local government agencies.

Outcomes

An accompanying five-year action plan provides a roadmap to address key challenges and opportunities to achieve the vision, with responsibilities assigned to relevant government agencies to enhance successful delivery.
