The Future of Fremantle has been conducted in three phases. During the latter half of 2024 the State Government will consider the recommended vision together with recommendations and advice for interrelated projects, including the Westport Business Case and Non-Container Trade projects. The staging and sequencing of any future redevelopment of the Inner Harbour would need to respond to the Government's transition plan for moving container and non-container trades out of Fremantle.
