3) Ensure the long term sustainability of the Peel Inlet and its waterways The region is well known for experiences that centre on the Peel Inlet and its waterways (an internationally recognised RAMSAR wetland). However there are concerns that the long term sustainability of waterways in the region is being impacted by both an increase in recreational use and a lack of suitable facilities. In order to protect this unique natural asset, the protection of, and further education about the significance of the Peel Inlet and its waterways is seen as essential. Key projects include: Priority Project Key agencies Timeframe Medium Develop the Peel Waterways Institute, an educational facility focusing on the scientific significance of the Peel Inlet and its waterways Peel Development Commission 1-5 years Medium Ensure the development of the Peel Regional Park around the Peel Inlet and Harvey Estuary Peel Development Commission 1-5 years Medium Develop additional mooring and jetty facilities for recreational and commercial traffic on the Peel Inlet and Murray River to prevent environmental degradation of the inlet and riverbanks Department of Transport, City of Mandurah, Shire of Murray 1-5 years Medium Implementation of the Peel Trails Master Plan where it relates to tourism outcomes for the region Peel Trails Group, Local Government 1-5 years 4) Facilitate the development of interpretation and facilities around other experiences in the region While the region is most known for its waterways, there is also the opportunity to further develop other experiences in the region. Areas for focus include the industrial tourism opportunities in inland parts of the region and the need for additional interpretation around sites of key natural and historical significance (such as Fairbridge Village and Forest Heritage Centre) in the Shire of Murray. Priority Project Key agencies Timeframe Medium Facilitate the development of additional interpretation around sites of natural and historical significance Shire of Murray 1-5 years Medium Facilitate the development of industrial tourism in the region Alcoa, Newmont 1-5 years 52 Experience Perth Tourism Western Australia | Tourism Development Priorities
5) Facilitate the development of diversified accommodation stock While an extensive range of accommodation stock in Mandurah and lack of suitable tourism zoned land in Rockingham may restrict the need and opportunity to expand accommodation stock in city centres, there is the opportunity to diversify accommodation stock in other areas of the region. Of particular focus are opportunities in and around Dawesville, Pinjarra and Point Grey as well as opportunities around Rockingham. Key projects include: Priority Project Key agencies Timeframe Medium Secure a site for affordable accommodation development near the Dawesville Channel City of Mandurah 1-5 years Medium Upgrade and expand accommodation stock at Fairbridge Village Fairbridge Village 1-5 years Medium Ensure tourism accommodation needs are included as part of the Point Grey development on the Pinjarra side of the Peel-Harvey Inlet Port Bouvard 1-5 years Medium Facilitate the development of accommodation on Department of Environment and Conservation lands in the Peel region Department of Environment and Conservation 1-5 years Medium Facilitate the development of accommodation stock at Kennedy Bay south of Rockingham Mirvac, Department of Planning 1-5 years Medium Facilitate the development of tourism accommodation as part of the Cape Peron Marina project Rockingham Kwinana Development Office, City of Rockingham 1-5 years Medium Facilitate the development of affordable accommodation options in Pinjarra Shire of Murray 1-5 years 6) Construct a bypass of the Pinjarra township Heavy traffic through the Pinjarra township from mining operations in the region raises safety issues and conflicts with the historical and heritage feel of the town. The provision of a bypass around the Pinjarra township will alleviate this situation and enhance the appeal of the township as a place to visit.
