Transperth Bus Depots

The PTA is building a number of new bus depots

Project Overview

The PTA is building a number of new bus depots to support the expanding public transport network. Additionally a number of existing bus depots will be upgraded to support the operation of electric buses.

These new depots will allow the existing bus fleet to grow as new passenger services are added to the bus network.

The addition of electric buses to the fleet is a part of the State Governments commitment to ‘Achieving Net Zero Emissions by 2050’ for Public Transport in WA. This initiative supports Western Australia’s Climate Policy by moving away from diesel to greener, more environmentally sustainable sources of power.

The Australian Government has committed $125 million toward electric bus charging infrastructure in Perth, combined with a $125 million commitment from the Western Australian Government for the acquisition of 130 locally manufactured electric buses.

Impacts

The new Henley Brook Bus Depot is currently being constructed on the site of the existing Henley Brook Bus Station including the park and ride area.

To facilitate the construction of the bus depot, bus circulation through the bus station will be modified and the park and ride area will be partially closed, and the bike shelter removed.
