METRONET —
ARMADALE RAIL LINE — GRADE SEPARATIONS
307. Hon Dr BRIAN WALKER to the Leader of the House
representing the Minister for Transport:
I refer the minister to the
response she gave me yesterday when I asked about grade separation at specific
junctions on the Armadale line. Noting that her response did nothing to address
any of the specifics I had asked about, I will try to make my question clearer
for her.
(1) If, as
suggested yesterday, the government continues to work on a plan to remove level
crossings across the heritage lines, how does its planning to date impact upon
grade separation at Kelvin Road and at William Street?
(2) What
consultation has been undertaken to date feeding into that ongoing plan and
with whom and when was it undertaken?
(3) What future
consultation, if any, can we expect to see as the planning proceeds?
Hon SUE
ELLERY replied:
I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1)–(3) The
state government continues to investigate options to remove level crossings
along the heritage rail lines, including at Kelvin Road and William Street.
This planning work is ongoing. Conversations with the City of Gosnells and
various state government departments have been ongoing and will continue.
