About this Report
Welcome to our 2011 Annual Report. This report is designed to provide you with easy to read information on how we performed over the past 12 months in our custodianship of Western Australia’s State road network. This report provides a comprehensive look at the services that we delivered to the Western Australian community over the past year. Not only does our report highlight our successes, but also recognises and addresses the challenges and opportunities facing us in the future. We remain committed to being recognised as a sustainable, transparent and responsive organisation that keeps stakeholders, community and the Government well informed of our operations.
A principal shared path.
This year, our efforts have continued to focus on improving the readability and accessibility of our report. We have simplified the design and layout and for the first time, our online Annual Report is available in a new format that is aimed at enhancing your reading experience and enabling quick access to specific sections of the report.
Our report is divided into four areas. The Year in Review provides you with an overview from our Managing Director, introduces you to our Corporate Executive team and presents a snapshot of our performance scorecard and financial outcomes.
The Key Operations section identifies our future challenges and opportunities and is focused around the services that we provide to the community for each of the Programs for which we receive funding. Each Program includes details of major projects and initiatives undertaken over the past 12 months and looks ahead to what we will be delivering in 2011‑12.
The section on Social Performance integrates information on our people, community, safety practices and sustainability. This year, once again we have endeavoured to benchmark our organisation against best practice in sustainability and reviewing how we perform against the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) G3.
The report concludes with details on our Governance Practices as we provide information on how we direct and manage our business activities to optimise performance, achieve regulatory compliance and deliver value for our customers.
