Yes. The riverside shared path between Trinity Avenue and the Causeway was temporarily closed while new footpaths were installed. These works are now complete, and the path has fully reopened to the public.

The interim landscaping works were undertaken to improve the amenity, safety and appearance of the Waterbank site while long-term redevelopment options are considered.

The previous development agreement between DevelopmentWA and Lendlease was mutually terminated in 2021 due to complex ground conditions that rendered the original proposal unviable. Since then, Lendlease has delivered Trinity Avenue (completed in 2024), restoring access to Trinity College.

No. Development of the site was delayed due to its complex geotechnical conditions, which require a specialised approach to development.

While major redevelopment is not currently progressing, the site remains within the Central Perth Redevelopment Area. The Central Perth Redevelopment Scheme identifies preferred land uses including retail, residential, dining and entertainment. Any future proposals will be assessed in line with the site's context and compatibility with surrounding land uses.

The playing fields and public open space are interim uses designed to activate the site while long-term development plans are being determined.

Completed in April 2026, the works included temporary playing fields, native landscaping, upgraded footpaths and verges, and new lighting and CCTV. Lendlease managed the project, with Landscape Elements engaged to deliver the landscaping.
