The look of the new 60,000-seat Perth stadium to be built in Burswood was unveiled today by Premier Colin Barnett, who guaranteed it would be open in time for the 2018 AFL season.
SPECIAL REPORT: The state's major builders appear unfazed to be operating in what's considered among Western Australia's most competitive and closely monitored business sectors.
Design proposals for the new Perth Stadium have been received from three private sector consortia – Confidem, Evolution and WESTADIUM – with a panel to announce the successful bidder for the project in mid-2014.
