Work ramps up on Whiteman Park Station

• Elevated rail now being installed for new Whiteman Park Station
• Beams that will support the elevated platforms now being installed
• Government has released new flythrough images showcasing the new station for the first time
• This station will service the growing suburbs of Henley Brook, Dayton, West Swan and Brabham

Work is rapidly progressing on the new Whiteman Park Station, which will become a major hub on the new Morley-Ellenbrook Line.

The entrance to Whiteman Park Station will be at ground level, with two elevated platforms, with beams now being installed to complete the raised rail structure.

To date, 12 of the 40 beams needed to complete the elevated rail structure have been installed. Once all the beams have been installed, concrete will be poured to complete the viaduct structure.

The new station will include 900 parking bays and 10 bus stands, as well as a pedestrian walkway underneath Drumpellier Drive to give residents in the growing communities around Brabham safe access to the new station.

The State Government has also today released new flythrough images, giving locals a first glimpse of what the new station will look like when it becomes operational in late 2024.

The new flythrough shows the elevated platforms, landscaped station forecourt and grassed areas which will greet passengers as they arrive.

Whiteman Park Station will service the Henley Brook, Dayton, West Swan and Brabham communities that are anticipated to boom over the next decade, with 12,000 new homes expected to be built for the 32,000 people choosing to live in the area by 2036.

To make the most of this transport investment, the Whiteman Park Station Precinct Concept Master Plan establishes a shared vision for the station precinct, informing structure planning in Brabham and future updates to the Whiteman Park Strategic Plan. It will also create a central hub to service current and future communities, complete with modern facilities that meet the daily transport needs of passengers.

Passengers using Whiteman Park will have a 25-minute trip from the Perth CBD on the new Morley-Ellenbrook Line, slashing 20 minutes off the current trip by bus.

The Morley-Ellenbrook Line is being jointly funded by the Federal and State Governments.
