Key Output

Land Use and Transport Infrastructure Service Delivery

Service delivery in the areas of transport infrastructure, land development, land and property services and management of the portfolio's land and transport infrastructure assets.

Efficiency indicator: The extent to which operational efficiency of land use and transport infrastructure service delivery is achieved.

Due to the complex nature of measuring this efficiency indicator this section is broken down into five sections and its measures:

  • Planning services;
  • Education and regulation;
  • Passenger and freight services;
  • Maritime infrastructure development and management; and
  • Crown land management.


Planning Services  
This involves the Department maintaining and operating regional offices to provide planning services to the community on behalf of WAPC in Albany, Bunbury, Mandurah, Geraldton, Karratha and Kalgoorlie. These offices are service resources for WAPC to assist in:

  • The acquisition and management of properties reserved under Country Region Schemes for important regional roads, controlled access highways, parks and recreational reserves, special uses and major land redevelopment projects;
  • The disposal of surplus properties;
  • The management of rental properties; and
  • Other special planning projects undertaken in country Western Australia.

The following table demonstrates the hourly cost of statutory and consultative services on behalf of the WAPC that facilitates the implementation of creative and innovative strategic regional and local plans and policies for country Western Australia.
