Elizabeth Quay - Accessiblity

Elizabeth Quay is a place for all West Australians to enjoy, offering features and facilities that ensure equal access for people with mobility challenges and disabilities. We strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone can fully experience the space.

Roads and pathways
The cobblestone paving at Elizabeth Quay’s internal roads helps slow traffic while providing a tactile demarcation for visually impaired visitors, distinguishing roads from pedestrian pathways. Smoother pedestrian-grade granite pathways offer a continuous accessible route for pedestrians, wheelchair users and people with prams.

Multiple crossing points across the quay ensure ease of movement, and ramps are provided at various locations, making access between the promenades and tiered decking seamless. The bridge is also wheelchair accessible.

Accessible toilets
All public toilets at Elizabeth Quay are equipped with accessible facilities, including those at Barrack Street Jetty, The Island, the eastern promenade and near Elizabeth Quay Water Park.

Changing places
Elizabeth Quay is home to WA’s first Changing Places facility, designed for people who are unable to use a standard universal accessible toilet. This fully accredited, specialist bathroom facility includes an adult-sized height-adjustable change table, a tracking hoist system and extra space for carers or wheelchairs. It is located next to Elizabeth Quay Water Park. Access is via an MLAK key, which can be obtained from the Master Locksmiths Association of Australasia.

Accessible parking
Short-term ACROD bays are available along The Esplanade, Riverside Drive and Geoffrey Bolton Avenue. For longer-term off-street parking, refer to the Department of Transport or visit City of Perth Parking and Wilson Parking for details on available bays, rates and opening hours.

Taxis and drop-off points
The safest and most convenient place to pick up or drop off passengers is at Barrack Street Jetty. Taxi ranks are located at Barrack Street Jetty, the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre and nearby streets such as William Street (near Hay Street Mall), Wesley Church (Hay Street) and London Court (St George’s Terrace).

Seeing Eye Dogs
Seeing Eye Dogs and other assistance animals are welcome throughout the quay.

Disability Access and Inclusion Plan
Our Disability Access and Inclusion Plan outlines our ongoing commitment to improving access to our services, facilities, information, and employment for people with disabilities, in line with the Disability Services Act 1993.
