BACKGROUND

​Motorsport in Albany & the surrounding areas is already known to be popular, with several well organised clubs, a national-level venue for speedway, a state-level venue for go-karts and widely recognised events such as the Albany Classic, Show ‘n Shine and Targa Albany Sprint.
However, some motorsport disciplines particularly motorcycle racing and motocross lack suitable regional facilities. The concept of the Albany Motorsport Park has been designed with flexibility for a variety of user groups and specifically to meet current and future safety requirements for motorcar and motorcycle racing and other compatible sports, like cycling.

COMMUNITY BENEFIT

​The social and community nature of motorsport clubs is highly valued by participants. Local motorsport enthusiasts will have a permanent, formalised venue to enjoy their passion – avoiding the need to travel to Collie, Manjimup, Perth or other venues across the state – and potentially reduce dangerous driving behaviour on local streets.

MULTI-USE FACILITY

​Provide a safe environment and venue to facilitate multiple motorsports (and other compatible sports) at a club and state level in Albany and the Great Southern region:
Circuit racing, speed racing, 4WD and driver training, motocross, other motorcycling, cycling and social club events.

​ECONOMY + TOURISM

​The local economy would be boosted through increased visitors for motorsport events, and by increased expenditure by local users.
National and international motorsport events could be hosted at the Albany Motorsport Park boosting tourism and visitation to the region

​SAFETY + EDUCATION

​Provide a venue to promote and facilitate driver and rider education including emergency services and 4WD training.
Provide a safe environment for companies to test and tune their vehicles.

​ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

​A number of technical investigations have been undertaken to ensure that a long-term management plan is established and implemented to protect the natural environment within the Albany Motorsport Park.
