QuestionView source ↗
In relation to the Perth Waterfront Project, I ask:
(a) how many parking bays are being included in the developments; and
(b) given the Government's new philosophy at Burswood Stadium to divert visitors and workers onto public transport, and that Elizabeth Quay is in closer proximity to various public transport options, will the Government revisit its high level of parking allocation to this site?

(a) All non-residential parking for developments within Elizabeth Quay will be determined in accordance with the Perth Parking Policy, administered by the Department of Transport. The Policy establishes the maximum number of on-site tenant car bays based on a ratio to the site area, location, design and access. Residential parking will be provided at a maximum rate of 0.7 bays per dwelling in accordance with the Elizabeth Quay Design Guidelines. The final number of parking bays will depend on the ultimate commercial development and residential yield outcomes.
(b) The car parking standards have been established having regard for the site's location within Perth city and, in particular, its high level of access to public transport.
