MODERATORS
 

The WA government is pressing ahead with its plan to create a motorsport street circuit in Burswood Park.

It is opening the community consultation process for the controversial new proposal.

But Treasurer Rita Saffioti has denied it will only be a motorsport track, saying it will be a "multi-use facility".

I wonder if it would have been possible to have incorporated a slightly larger street circuit in to the future development at the racecourse on the other side of the freeway?

a good chunk of that is about to become high-rise apartments. on wet riverbank. but would be a better place for the motor track part of the plans

Gona need cement for days for that development. Definitely seems like they're pushing too far with those high rises. I'll not be surprised if the hardened shoreline causes all kinds of issues down river. Let alone the impact on wetland area.

But hey, maybe they're not going to remove as much of the wetland area as i think they will, maybe they have a plan for drainage so the hard edge doesn't act to drown whats left of the small wetland in front. Maybe..
