Have your Say: Future of Vertiport Design

20/12/2022

 
With the development of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft rapidly moving ahead, we are preparing for the new, futuristic transport terminals where they will take-off and land: vertiports.
The Civil Aviation Safety Authority have prepared draft guidance material, also known as an advisory circular, which sets out the design guidelines for future vertiports and are seeking feedback. CASA have opened a public consultation to anyone active in the AAM, uncrewed, or crewed aviation industry to gain your feedback.
To learn more about vertiports before providing feedback, CASA is hosting a series of free webinars:
  • 19 January 2023 at 2 pm AEDT - Physical characteristics of a vertiport
  • 2 February 2023 at 2 pm AEDT - Obstacle limitation surfaces for a vertiport
  • 16 February 2023 at 2 pm AEDT - Visual aids of a vertiport
Visit the Consultation Hub to have your say. Consultations close 31 March 2023.

To inform the design and implementation of the Guarantee, stakeholders are invited to read the Australian Skills Guarantee Discussion Paper and make a submission.

New Rail Access Code ready for consultation

22/6/2022

 
​WA's Rail Access Regime provides a regulated pathway for parties to gain access to pre-determined privately-owned railways. Following extensive consultation and a review of the Regime, the State Government is implementing significant changes to ensure a more effective alternative when commercial negotiations stall, speed up access negotiations and ensure railway access arrangements are fair for all parties.
​

Feedback is being sought on the draft amendments via https://www.wa.gov.au/railaccessregime, and closes 23 July 2022. You can also email regulatory.reform@treasury.wa.gov.au to submit your feedback.
