Two bridges will be constructed downstream of the heritage-listed Causeway Bridge, providing improved access across the Swan River for pedestrians and cyclists.
The cable-stayed bridges will provide a six-metre wide shared path and will create a safer connection for people walking and riding from the Perth CBD to Victoria Park and beyond.
Project development and planning is under way, with early construction and ground improvement works beginning in early-2023.
Currently more than 1,400 cyclists and 1,900 pedestrians use the two-metre wide Causeway path each day.
