The McGowan Government is providing up to $3 million in funding to secure Regional Express (Rex) services on the regional air routes of Albany, Esperance and Carnarvon-Monkey Mia.
 
Securing regional aviation services is aimed at ensuring workers, such as those in health and emergency sectors, can continue to provide their vital services to regional areas.
 
The State Government has been working hard with airlines, local governments and airport owners, to find ways to secure a level of air services across Western Australia's many regional communities.

New funding secures essential Rex air services for WA

The Department of Transport is introducing several changes to its services to manage disruption arising from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Practical Driving Assessments (PDAs) will continue but they will be limited and prioritised according to need.

From Monday (March 30), C Class (car) PDAs will only be available to learners who require a driver's licence for employment or emergency services, and customers who have a PDA booked which they do not urgently require are being asked to cancel online.

Temporary licensing changes in place to help elderly and essential workers

The economic stimulus package freezes fee increases but you will still need to pay your vehicle licence (rego).

Here’s an update on the WA State Government's COVID-19 economic response package.

The bad news is you still have to pay your vehicle licence (rego) fees for both this year and next year. The freeze means there will be no increases to your motor vehicle licence fees which were set to rise 1 July this year with inflation. Great news for your budget as your bill next year will be the same as the one you received from us this year.

See the below statement for full details of the stimulus package.
