The Fremantle Society committee last night unanimously voted to officially join the RETHINK PERTH FREIGHT LINK coalition.
To quote Rethink The Link: “The Perth Freight Link is a $1.6 billion, 13 km, 6-lane tollway to bring heavy vehicles from Kwinana Freeway, Bibra Lake, to Stirling Highway and Fremantle Port. It carves through significant wetlands and inner suburban communities and there has been no consultation or consideration of these communities and the long term health impacts. There is a better freight solution for Fremantle and we are asking the government to look at the alternatives and weigh up all the costs.”

Additional: Cottesloe Ratepayers and Residents Association are opposing the Perth Freight Link.
