(2) Yes, the construction of the Perth Bicycle Network is running to schedule. The Swanbourne to Grant Street Principal Shared Path (PSP) is currently under construction to be completed this month (June 2003). In December 2002 the Government also completed the East Parade to Maylands Station PSP and I am pleased to inform the Parliament that the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure, recently signed a contract for the extension of this facility from Maylands Station through to Bayswater Station. Planning and Design work on other PBN Stage 2 projects is in progress. (3) The State Government is reviewing the order in which the elements of the PBN are completed in order to get better integration with new public transport developments.
