Have your say on the future of Perth Waters.

The Perth Water Precinct (from the Narrows to Windan Bridges) is transforming with major projects underway, increasing visitor numbers and new river and land-based activities.

Until 31 August 2018, you can have your say and provide ideas and suggestions on things like lively places and tranquil spaces, better ways to get around and across the river, experiencing river life, letting the river breathe and celebrating culture and community.

Have your say now!

Stage 2 of a river wall restoration project has been completed in Nedlands.

The rock revetment was designed and chosen because it can absorb the erosive forces of the water and protect the adjacent foreshore emabankment.

Did you know the Kent Street Weir in Wilson is the point that separates the fresh water in the Canning River from the saline waters of the Canning Estuary?

The weir has been opened for the first time since a major upgrade to install automated hydraulic weir gates, a fishway and an improved walkway to enhance public access.

The opening of the weir will help alleviate winter flows and allow freshwater to push well into the estuary.

If you would like to see the water flowing through the weir, pack a picnic and visit the Explore Parks website for more info.
