Perth plans views down by the riverside

The City of Perth is urging Western Australians to have their say in shaping the vision for the city’s riverfront.

Chair of the City of Perth Commission, Andrew Hammond said that stretching from Elizabeth Quay to Point Fraser, the riverfront was an iconic backdrop to the State’s capital city.

“In mid-March, the City of Perth commenced engagement on the City’s Riverfront Project and due to the onset of COVID-19 restrictions, was not able to complete the community engagement as planned,” Mr Hammond said.

“With restrictions almost completely lifted, the City of Perth has decided to re-engage the community on Perth’s riverfront and hope to hear from as many people as possible to develop a shared vision for the future.”

He said the riverfront had the potential to become a world class destination.

“We will be working with the Western Australian community and various stakeholders to develop a shared vision for the future of the area,” Mr Hammond said.

“Focusing on improvements, ideas and community need, we want to hear from as many people as possible to share their vision for the riverfront.”

He encouraged interested Western Australians to take the survey and share their ideas and consequently be in the running for a dinner for two overlooking the Swan River.
