Cockburn a major centre in the making: Mayor

Mr Howlett’s remarks came as he pushed for public comment on the Cockburn Central Activity Centre Plan.

Highlighted within the document are plans to elevate Cockburn Central to central city status ” similar to Fremantle, improving local business activity through improved accessibility, and lobbying for direct access to eastern metro areas.

Mr Howlett said the plan would help the centre grow into a place of significance.

‘Cockburn Central has the capacity to become a leading metropolitan urban area to a thriving community,’ he said.

‘This plan will enable key planning issues to be addressed into the future.’
