In order to reduce the risk of collision between vessels and any subsequent environmental damage off the North-western Australian coast, the Australian Maritime Safety Authority have established a network of marine fairways.
Larger vessels, such as Bulk carriers and Gas tankers headed for larger ports in the region will be encouraged to use these fairways. The fairways route these larger vessels away from offshore installations, reefs and shallows.

澳大利亚航道-澳大利亚西北岸
澳大利亚海事局在澳大利亚西北海岸设立了海上航道网络,以降低船舶在澳大利亚西北岸发生碰撞的风险并减少由此造成的任何环境损害。
协会建议前往该地区较大港口的大型船舶,如散装船和气体船等,在海事局推荐的航道中航行,以远离海上设施、礁石和浅滩。
