With planning underway by the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage and the WA Planning Commission to relocate Perth’s container port to Kwinana, the Future of Fremantle Place and Economic Vision proposes transformational, long-term redevelopment of the Fremantle. This long-term and ambitious plan aims to transform Fremantle Port into one the world’s great waterfront cities and was endorsed by the Western Australian Government in late 2024.

The plan maps how the future redevelopment of Fremantle’s harbour precinct would transform the area into a globally significant, city-scale development once trades have relocated. This project has considerable consequences for the future of North Fremantle, with significant transformation expected at North Quay. The projected population increase of 30,000+ residents will have major transport implications, including potential train line reconfiguration, relocation of North Fremantle Station, mid-tier public transport opportunities, and a full road network overhaul around Brack Street Precinct and Tydeman Road
