WA LABOR LIGHT RAIL DISCUSSION PAPER

A fully funded light rail from East Perth to West Perth

WA Labor has launched a policy discussion paper to build a light rail line from East Perth to West Perth using the surplus funding from the Perth Parking Levy.

Labor’s proposal would see an initial 5.7km of light rail constructed from the Causeway in East Perth to Thomas Street in West Perth, with an additional short line to a depot near Royal Street in East Perth.
