Westport: unlocking economic development through better land use Nicole Lockwood Independent Chair, Westport Taskforce
What is Westport? • Westport is preparing a strategy to Fremantle accommodate Perth ’s freight demand for the next 50 years and beyond. • Focused on the ports at Fremantle, Kwinana and Bunbury, the roads and rail that deliver the Kwinana / Cockburn freight, and the intermodal terminals required. Sound • Assessing solutions of all kinds, including operational changes (i.e. more off-peak operations), new infrastructure and more. Bunbury • Balancing priorities of economic growth, sustainability and the environment.

Eight Strategic Options 1. Base Case (current situation for baselining) 2. Optimise Fremantle and transition containers to Kwinana over time 3. Optimise Fremantle and transition containers to Bunbury over time 4. Move all containers to Kwinana ASAP 5. Move all containers to Bunbury ASAP Option 1: Base case 6. Fremantle and Kwinana both have containers for the long-term 7. Fremantle and Bunbury both have containers for the long-term 8. Only Fremantle has containers long-term
Complex considerations, specialised expertise Stage 2 workstreams focused on: • Cross-agency 1. Port operations and supply chain teams 2. Environmental • External 3. Economic development and land activities expertise • Robust risk 4. Commercial (financial) management 5. Defence • Independent 6. Social licence peer review of all work 7. Geospatial information systems (GIS) 8. Multi-criteria analysis (MCA)

Fremantle container forecasts 5.47 million TEU 5.5 (4% annual growth) 5 Small increases in annual 4.5 growth forecasts have 4.3 million TEU (3.5%) Containers – million TEU 4 huge cumulative impacts 3.5 over time. 3.37 million TEU (3%) 3.1 million TEU (2.8%) 3 2.5 2 1.5 770,000 TEU in 2018 1 0.5 2068 is Westport’s 0 50-year 2018 2028 2038 2048 2058 2068 end-state Year
Fremantle | 4 long-list options Two stand-alone port options handling Two shared-port options handling 3.8 million TEU by 2068: 1.2 million TEU by 2068: • Expanded port footprint • Existing port footprint • Expanded roads & rail, incl. new infrastructure • Minor rail upgrades
Bunbury | 4 long-list options Two stand-alone port options handling 3.8 million TEU by 2068: • Significantly expanded port footprint • Expanded roads incl. BORR • One option fully reliant on trucks • One option reliant on rail (requires duplication of South West Main line and gauge separation) Two shared-port options handling 2.6 million TEU by 2068: • Same as above, but slightly smaller port footprint
Kwinana | 17 long-list options includes: • 9 stand-alone port options that can handle Northern options area full container task of 3.8 million TEU • 8 shared-port options that can handle up to 2.6 million TEU (shared with Fremantle) • 11 port options in the north serviced by Rowley Road (2 connect to land north of the Shacks, 9 connect to land south of the Shacks) • 6 port options in the south serviced by Southern options Anketell Road (connect to land at the KIA between area Kwinana Bulk Jetty and Alcoa) • No options further south of the Kwinana Industrial Area (KIA)
Kwinana | 17 long-list options includes: • 10 conventional port options – island (5), land- backed (4) or hybrid (1) • 7 light footprint port options, serviced by an intermodal terminal at Latitude 32. Containers are moved from port to Lat32 by rapid automated vehicles • Supply chain split varying between options from 66% road / 34% rail to 83% road / 17% rail • Expanding the road links (Rowley and Anketell) to the Outer Harbour are already in planning by Example of a light footprint port: Terminal Teluk Lamong – Main Roads, independent to Westport Surabaya, Indonesia
Better land planning = economic growth Westport is all about economic growth. Our investigations include: • Maximising the use of industrial land surrounding the port precincts • How to best utilise Latitude 32 in Kwinana • Co-locating complementary industries to generate symbiosis and innovation • Economies of scale for utilities, support services and supply chain links • How to boost growing industries, such as tourism, lithium/energy minerals, defence and food manufacturing • How to accommodate economic opportunities that may emerge in the future • Leveraging various intermodal terminal locations across Perth and Bunbury • Opportunity of redeveloping land for alternative purposes (e.g. Fremantle) • Securing transport corridors in the MRS
