WA Bicycle Network Grants Program
About the Western Australian Bicycle Network Grants Program
The WABN grants program is one of the key actions detailed in the Western Australian Bicycle Network Plan 2014-2031 which sets out a framework for the provision of a safe and sustainable cycling network across WA. For more information visit the WA Bicycle Network Plan project page.
Funding is available to local government authorities in WA, for up to 50 per cent of the total project cost, for the design and implementation of bicycle network infrastructure and programs in accordance with State Government priorities set out in the WABN Plan.
Projects are encouraged to be spread over two financial years to facilitate high quality planning and design. To enable project staging, funding may be applied for in two consecutive financial years.
In January 2020, DoT awarded more than $7.6 million in WABN grant funding to 63 projects across 45 metropolitan and regional local governments.
