Design & Construction of Geraldton Depot

⁠⁠⁠The Scope

Western Power is seeking Registrations of Interest (ROI) from suitably qualified and experienced organisations, who place safety as its core value, for the provision of a new Depot located in the City of Greater Geraldton. This new Depot will be owned by Western Power and proposed for delivery under a ‘Design and Construct’ (D&C) contract to Western Power’s standards and requirements.

It will be situated adjacent and to the west of the existing Depot and will encompass a total site area of approximately 3 hectares.

Built form improvements include workshops, warehousing and office accommodation along with concrete hardstand and under cover parking for heavy vehicles. The Depot will house over 50 Western Power employees and include on-site parking for over 100 heavy and light vehicles. It is intended to commence construction in the later part of 2021.
