WA 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.

The WABN Grants application round for 2020-21 will open on Monday 8 July 2019. Expressions of Interest (EOIs) are invited through the EOI application form available below.

Local government briefings will occur in the first week of July and applicants are strongly encouraged to contact DoT to discuss their project proposals before submission via wabngrants@transport.wa.gov.au, 6551 6810 (metropolitan projects) or 6551 6752 (regional projects).

The WA Bicycle Network grants are competitive. To assist your applications please read the WABN Grants Application Guidelines which outline the desired outcomes of the grants, eligibility, assessment criteria, and the type of infrastructure that is funded.

The deadline for EOI submissions is 25 July 2019. Following the EOI assessment process, only shortlisted projects will be invited to submit a full proposal. The Full Proposal Form will be available to download here once the EOI stage is closed.  Full proposal applications close 13 September 2019.
