Stage 3: Draft Precinct Structure Plan

The Albany Highway Precinct Structure Plan is here!

After years of community engagement, precinct planning and hard work, the Town is proud to present our plan that will guide future development of the iconic Albany Highway strip.

The Albany Highway Precinct Structure Plan will support new development and growth of the precinct as a distinct, sustainable, and vibrant place, with a strong local focus and regional appeal.

The objectives of the precinct structure plan aim to enhance local ecology, expand public open space, improve walkability, support active transport, and encourage innovative and sustainable development that complements the precinct’s existing character.

The Albany Highway Precinct Structure Plan and its associated scheme amendment were endorsed by Council at the June 2025 Ordinary Meeting of Council. 

What’s next?

The Albany Highway Precinct Structure Plan has now been submitted to the Western Australian Planning Commission (the final decision maker) for approval. 

The structure plan is now considered to be a seriously entertained planning proposal which is given due regard in decision making, subject to any decisions of the Commission. 

The Town anticipates the Commission's assessment and decision on the structure plan to be issued in mid-2026.

    Stage 2 Community Survey

    The Town is seeking community and landowner feedback on the Stage 2 growth modelling and draft informing strategies to ensure outcomes reflect the agreed vision and priorities established for Albany Highway.

    Your feedback will inform the detailed Albany Highway Precinct Structure Plan which will be released for more community feedback at a later date.

    Please note that the survey includes questions on all six sub-precincts. These questions are not mandatory and you are welcome to respond to as many sub-precincts as you like.

    Depending on how many sub-precincts you'd like to give feedback on, the survey should take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete. Many of the sections are quite detailed, so we recommend having the Concept Design Summary Report and the relevant informing strategies open to refer to.

    Submissions are invited until 9am Monday 29 May 2023.
