High employment levels, strong growth in disposable incomes and strong Australian dollar resulted in high consumption expenditure. These factors contributed to strong demand for domestic and international RPT air services. They have also resulted in increasing urbanisation in Perth, placing pressure on infrastructure, particularly the regional road network. • In response to strong demand, significant increase in air services provided by airlines and an increased presence of airlines offering “low cost” services. These factors resulted in the public being offered wider choice and, in most markets, access to lower airfares arising from increased competition between airlines. The impact of these factors was a rapid increase in the level of domestic and international RPT air services. This increase is depicted in Figure 7.2 which shows the upward shift in domestic RPT activity from 2002, as measured by annual passenger movements. 54

These aircraft bring with them specific requirements in relation to airport infrastructure. • The significance of climate change and resulting Government policy settings to reduced carbon emissions is expected to impact airport infrastructure planning and design. • The continued development of the Kewdale area, including Perth Airport, as a logical zone for freight and logistics industrial development, has contributed to increased demand on the arterial road network in the vicinity of Perth Airport. Increasing congestion on road network in eastern suburbs of Perth is adversely impacting access to Perth Airport. Due to deteriorating economic conditions the rate of growth in demand for Perth Airport aviation and property services slowed in late 2008. The latest aviation forecasts, upon which this Master Plan 2009 is based, and which are described in Chapter 5, see low growth in 2010 and recovery from 2011. 55
