Flood Risk
Kewdale is located in the Perth metropolitan area with relatively low flood risk. While the suburb is situated broadly within the Swan River catchment, it is elevated and inland with no major waterways directly traversing the locality. WA does not employ mandatory state-wide flood overlays equivalent to those in Queensland or Victoria, so flood risk assessment is typically site-specific and included in planning/development applications rather than pre-mapped on cadastral overlays.
Planning Controls
- •WA Planning Commission flood risk assessment guidelines for development near Swan River and tributaries
- •Mandatory flood hazard assessment for properties within 100m of mapped watercourses
- •Local planning scheme provisions requiring finished floor levels above predicted flood levels for new development
Bushfire Risk

Kewdale is an inner-urban/industrial suburb of Perth with predominantly developed land use, low vegetation density, and minimal bushland interfaces. Bushfire risk is low with BAL-LOW rating typical for this area. Standard construction practices apply; property-level vegetation management and maintenance remain prudent.

Future Development
Kewdale remains a predominantly industrial and logistics-focused suburb with modest residential infill activity. Development pressure is driven by ongoing industrial/warehouse expansion, proximity to Perth Airport, and incremental improvements to transport corridors. Most activity involves DA applications for industrial lot subdivision, warehouse facilities, and logistics operations rather than major residential or mixed-use projects.
