‘It is the City’s position that upgrades to Jandakot and Solomon roads by the developer be secured in a timely manner to ensure the effective management of additional traffic generated by the development,’ the report says.
Cockburn engineering director Michael Littleton said an agreement was not far off.
‘Both parties are working towards an agreement,’ he said after council agreed to approve the Banjup Quarry Local Structure Plan on Thursday.
‘It’s in draft form and should be resolved in the near future.’
Stockland’s senior development manager Alf Lay said that an upgrade timeline and Stockland’s level of contribution would be better known when the two parties met to negotiate over the coming weeks.
