    Stirling Highway was reserved as a primary Regional Road (with a reservation width up to eighty metres) in the metropolitan region scheme in 1963. Various studies have been undertaken since 1963 to determine the ultimate reservation width.

    In recent years the WA Planning Commission has adopted an interim development width with a setback of 5 metres on either side for the purpose of controlling development.

    If you are considering a development proposal that involves land adjacent to Stirling Highway you are required to contact the department of planning and infrastructure to clarify the situation of the land involved.
