This report has been commissioned by the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage in light of the new and upgraded station precincts and transport infrastructure being developed for METRONET. This research and subsequent report provide stakeholder insight into barriers to the success of past planning and design around transit in Perth.
Transit precincts for people
This research has demonstrated a strong need to revisit tired debates and assumptions about who does and doesn’t want density or development, and to look at the next wave of proposed TODs in Perth through a more human scale, inclusive, community-minded lens, rather than ensuring retail anchors or apartment sales as indicators of success.
