THE CIT Y OF SWAN?
Growth
The City of Swan is the largest local government in the Perth metropolitan area
covering 1,042km2 of land area. Within it’s boundaries is a thriving network of economic
growth consisting of some of the fastest growing residential suburbs in WA, major commercial
and industrial areas and historically important townsites and rural areas. The City’s current
population of 149,000 is forecasted to grow to 240,000 people by 2036, an increase of 91,000.

Location advantage
Midland is the City of Swan’s Strategic Metropolitan Centre, located 15km from Perth CBD and
10km from Perth Airport taking less than 25 minutes to arrive at either destination. It is considered
the gateway to interstate and regional WA locations, including the Wheatbelt, Goldfields and the
north-west mining regions, and provides direct access to major transport routes.

Transport and distribution
The City of Swan is an integral part of Perth’s freight network which includes parts of Perth
Airport, the freight rail line and the major transport corridors of the Great Eastern, Great Northern,
Tonkin, Roe and Reid Highways. If it comes by road, rail or air, it comes through the City.

With Perth Airport establishing direct flights to and from the United Kingdom, the Middle East,
Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia and many other countries, the City of Swan is more accessible for
investment than ever before.

GROW TH ARE AS
Commercial development
The population in the City of Swan is growing rapidly, leading to the establishment of
more localised neighbourhood shopping centres and the potential for larger district
centres in Bullsbrook, Ellenbrook and Brabham. This growth also supports shopping
centre expansion in the City’s strategic metropolitan centre in Midland and secondary
commercial centre in Ellenbrook.

Industrial development
The City of Swan is home to the key industrial precincts of Malaga, Hazelmere and Bullsbrook.
These areas provide prime opportunities for industrial development, strategically located for
easy access to major transport corridors including the Great Eastern, Great Northern, Tonkin,
Roe and Reid Highways. They are also close to Perth’s international and domestic airports,
the rail freight network and the Kewdale freight terminal.

Residential development
The City of Swan has some of the fastest growing residential suburbs in WA, with a
forecast average annual population growth of 1.97% (almost 173,000 additional residents
over the next 31 years). To meet these demands, future residential growth will occur on
multiple fronts. This includes the 1,100 hectare Urban Growth Corridor, new development
in Bullsbrook, continued growth in The Vines, Ellenbrook and Aveley, and potential urban
infill opportunities throughout the City.

Tourism
The City of Swan is home to WA’s oldest wine region, the Swan Valley, and the picturesque
and historic suburb of Guildford. Our tourism precincts add significant value to the local
economy and offer unique experiences related to agriculture, the rural lifestyle, food and wine.

In 2017/18, tourism and hospitality sales in the City totalled $597.9 million, engaging
a workforce of 3,889 people, which equates to 5.7% of total employment in the region.

The State Government (Tourism WA) is committed to further promoting and supporting
the region, particularly the Swan Valley.

INVESTMENT
OPPORTUNITIES
Midland
Midland’s city centre offers significant redevelopment opportunities for investors and
developers to increase their potential for financial return. As the primary business centre
in the east and north east, Midland’s CBD catchment stretches far beyond the City,
servicing residents from the Perth Hills, Chittering, Gingin, the Wheatbelt and Avon Valley.

The 11 hectare New Junction precinct is on track to become an iconic, vibrant and
diverse destination in Midland. It represents $680 million of new construction work,
a $990 million boost to the local economy and a $2.2 billion boost to the WA economy.

The Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority (MRA) has an established health precinct
in Midland that includes ancillary health providers and the St John of God public/
private hospital. The Curtin University Midland Campus opened in November 2019.
With an influx of medical professionals, students and visitors, the vacant sites in
and surrounding the old railyard workshops are prime locations for residential,
retail, commercial office and entertainment projects.

Malaga
Malaga has a diverse range of business types with manufacturing, construction, wholesale and
retail trade industries strongly represented by local and national brands. Retail activities are
mainly located along Marshall Road and Malaga Drive, where the Highway Service Zone allows
for showroom uses. The City’s Retail Needs Assessment determined that Malaga is our most
important Mixed Business Area, with an estimated 89,000m2 of bulk retail floor space.

Hazelmere                                                                                              FREMANTLE PORT
Hazelmere is ready for investment, with 190ha of rural land rezoned to light and general
industrial, residential and institutional uses. A significant portion of this area remains
undeveloped or underdeveloped, making this emerging transport and logistics hub a prime
candidate for development. Situated immediately north of Perth Airport and south of Midland,
Hazelmere’s location provides access to major air, road and rail freight transport routes.

Bullsbrook
                                                                                                   INDIAN OCEAN
Bullsbrook is located between two major freight routes, the Great Northern Highway and the
Tonkin Highway extension - North Link WA. It is also conveniently close to the Perth-Geraldton
rail line. With the proposal of an intermodal freight terminal, Bullsbrook affords strategic
linkages to the agricultural regions north and east of Perth.

Swan Valley
With limited tourist accommodation available in the Swan Valley, there is scope for operators
to take advantage of a growing market. Due to their proximity, Midland and Guildford also
have accommodation potential. There are abundant opportunities for businesses related to
food and beverage, agri-tourism, attractions and experiences, day tripper tours and events.
