Karawara Pedestrian and Cycle Access Plan
The feedback period for the Karawara Pedestrian and Cycle Access Plan has now closed. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback, all of which will now be analysed. The revised Plan will be presented to Council in early 2025.
The City of South Perth has developed a draft Karawara Pedestrian and Cycle Access Plan (the Plan) which identifies existing pedestrian and cycle access ways in the area. The draft Plan covers the whole suburb of Karawara including Curtin Primary School and Meath Care.
There are 32 Pedestrian Access Ways, also known as laneways or PAWs in Karawara. The City has developed a classification system to identify if each laneway/PAW is essential or non-essential in terms of how it’s used by pedestrians and cyclists in Karawara:
- Essential - the PAW should be retained and kept open because it plays an essential role in connecting people to places.
- Non-essential - the PAW could be closed without causing significant disadvantage when connecting people to places.
The draft Plan also proposes infrastructure improvements to the PAWs/laneways.
The City is seeking your feedback on the above proposals.
You are strongly encouraged to read the information sheet and the summary table of recommendations before providing your feedback.
Drop in and chat to the project team on Wednesday 16 October,
12-2pm at Village Green Shopping Centre, Karawara.
Feedback closed 4pm, Monday 11 November.
