2) Develop Perth Waterfront to be the premier tourism precinct in the Perth region The redevelopment of the waterfront around Barrack Street and the Perth Convention Exhibition Centre into a vibrant people-orientated precinct will provide one of the most significant tourism assets created in the city for decades. This precinct’s development has the potential to stimulate major investment in tourism related infrastructure and provide a focal point for visitors in the Perth’s CBD. As a result, the precinct should have a significant tourism focus allowing for the development of accommodation, built attractions and cafes and restaurants. The development of an Indigenous Centre of Culture and Arts and a cable car linking to Kings Park have been identified by Tourism WA as key tourism related developments in this project.

5) Redevelop Perth Airport and upgrade supporting infrastructure Between June 2005 and June 2009, passenger movements at Perth Airport increased by over three million (46%). 6 With this massive increase in traffic, current facilities including parking have been under severe strain. According to research conducted by Tourism WA, this strain has impacted on both visitor and local resident experiences. 7 As a result, Perth Airport needs to be urgently redeveloped to meet increasing demand and changes in aeroplane technology. An integration of the international and domestic terminals and improvements in visitor servicing are priorities in this redevelopment, along with an improvement in public transport access and improvements to the arterial road network around Perth airport. Key projects include: Priority Project Key agencies Timeframe Very High Redevelop Perth Airport Westralia Airports Corporation, Department of Transport 1-10 years Very High Upgrade arterial road network around Perth Airport Main Roads, Department of Transport 1-10 years High Facilitate improved public transport links to Perth Airport Department of Transport, Westralia Airports Corporation 1-10 years Experience Perth Tourism Western Australia | Tourism Development Priorities 19
