First look at the new Byford Station

Designs for the new Byford Station, which will be built as part of the Byford Rail Extension, have been released for public comment and residents are now invited to have their say.

The new station will include three platforms to service both the Armadale Line and Australind passengers, and a bus interchange with seven stands to support connecting services.

The station complex will accommodate about 400 parking bays, including ACROD bays and secure shelters for around 100 bicycles, support community safety with bright lighting and CCTV, as well as provide space for meeting and recreation.

Public art has been incorporated to reflect the area's local identity, native flora and fauna, and Aboriginal culture.

This follows community and stakeholder engagement earlier this year, where residents had a say on safety, access, and their connection to public spaces.

This new station will be a catalyst for development around the station area, and support the growing suburb of Byford.

Once complete, the station will give Byford and surrounding residents a seamless connection to Perth in a 42-minute journey with a two-zone fare cap.

The community can view the proposed designs and comment on the Development Application until 7 September 2023.
