Consultation has concluded
Plan supported by the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage
In September 2025, the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage provided general support for the approach for managing the 32 Pedestrian Access Ways (laneways or PAWs) contained in the Karawara Pedestrian and Cycle Access Plan (the Plan).
Plan supported by Council
The draft Karawara Pedestrian and Cycle Access Plan was supported at the Ordinary Council Meeting on Tuesday 25 February 2025. You can read the minutes on the City's website (External link).
Consultation concluded
The feedback period for the Karawara Pedestrian and Cycle Access Plan closed on Monday 11 November 2024. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback.
Background
The City of South Perth developed the Karawara Pedestrian and Cycle Access Plan (the Plan) in accordance with the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage’s Procedure for the Closure of Pedestrian Access Ways.
The Plan, extending to include Curtin Primary School and Meath Care, identifies 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:
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 Plan also proposed infrastructure improvements to the PAWs/laneways.
The City sought your feedback on the above proposals, which were considered by Council at its meeting on Tuesday 25 February 2025. You can read the minutes on the City's website (External link).
Feedback closed 4pm, Monday 11 November 2024.
