In less than three months, the old Fremantle Traffic Bridge will close for at least a year. Every day, around 24,000 vehicles cross it - and once it’s shut, they’ll all need to find another way.

They can’t all fit on Stirling Bridge without serious gridlock.

The State Government has announced a few small steps to help reduce car use, but there’s still a lot more we can do - especially to help people get around without a car and to make sure our local residents and businesses stay connected and thriving.

This challenge could be a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make Fremantle more walkable, bike-able, and better connected by public transport - if we plan it right.

Come along to our free community forum where local leaders and experts will share information on current and proposed initiatives, and you can share your own ideas. Let’s turn this disruption into something positive for Fremantle’s future.

Presenters:

Melanie Clark, Fremantle Councillor and business owner, will outline the issues and introduce current and potential initiaves
Dr Annie Matan, Freo Bicycle Users Group (Freo BUG - see petition here) spokesperson will talk about cycling initiatives
Fremantle Mayor Ben Lawver will discuss freight options

The presenters will be joined by East Fremantle Councillor Rebecca Cutter for a panel conversation and audience Q&A.

Tickets are free but booking is essential to secure your spot. We look forward to an interesting exploration of this transformational time for our city.

Doors open at 6pm for a 6.30pm start.
