Overview

The City of Karratha is delivering 116 new apartments across Ridley Street, Gregory Way and Nairn Street in Bulgarra to help address the local housing shortage.

Construction is progressing in stages across the three sites. Works will continue through 2026, with overall project completion expected by December 2026.

Housing is one of the most significant challenges facing the Karratha community, impacting liveability and future growth.

The City is facing a projected shortfall of housing in the coming years and is taking a multi-pronged approach to improving housing outcomes. This includes:

  • Supporting new subdivisions and land supply
  • Developing City-owned land
  • Advocating for greater investment and policy settings that increase housing supply

The Bulgarra apartments form part of this broader approach to increasing housing availability in our community.

  • Site works are underway at Ridley Street and Gregory Way
  • Early works include site preparation and service connections
  • Construction at Nairn Street is scheduled to follow
  • Residents may notice construction activity, including vehicle movements and noise, during standard working hours
  • Module delivery will occur in stages between March and June 2026
  • Module installation will follow from June through to October 2026
  • Remaining site works, including landscaping and car parking, will continue later in 2026

Construction works at 30 Nairn Street, Lot 751 Gregory Way and 17 Ridley Street may result in temporary impacts.
