Have Your Say on the Mitchell Freeway PSP!

The WA Government is completing the Mitchell Freeway Principal Shared Path (PSP) between Glendalough Train Station and Reid Highway, with construction of the Glendalough Train Station to Hutton Street section completed in July 2020, and the section from Civic Place to Reid Highway completed in May 2023.

As part of evaluation of this project – being conducted by Painted Dog Research – the Department of Transport is keen to hear from the community who live, work or travel in the areas surrounding the Glendalough Train Station to Hutton Street section of the PSP, as well as the newly completed section from Civic Place to Reid Highway.

The research team are keen to hear from all the community – people who bike ride, walk or scoot through this area, as well as those who haven’t for a while, or don’t currently bike ride, walk or scoot.

Complete the survey (about 10 minutes) at the link below and feel free to share – all responses must be in by midnight 12th November!
