Planning for Western Australia’s industrial growth
Source: WA. Minister for Planning and Infrastructure. Media Release
"The State Government is investing $1million to support industrial land needs in the Perth metropolitan area and Peel region by developing the General Industrial Land Planning Strategy.

The take-up of serviced industrial land in Perth and Peel has almost tripled in the past five years from 50ha in 2001-02 to 130ha in 2005-06 and based on the current strength of the WA economy, this demand is likely to continue for years to come. In order to boost stocks of industrial land, it is essential we undertake detailed planning and technical studies to identify land with good access to transport and other infrastructure that will support the continued growth of industry. As it can take several years to create new industrial estates, it is important to rebuild a supply of zoned industrial land in a range of locations by using a co-ordinated approach to land planning and assembly."
