The Forrestfield-Airport Link project has delivered a new rail service to the eastern suburbs of Perth - with three new stations at Redcliffe, Airport Central and High Wycombe.
The Airport Line, as it is now known after launching on 9 October 2022, spurs off the existing Midland Line near Bayswater Station and runs to High Wycombe through twin-bored tunnels.
The line makes access to Perth Airport quicker, easier and more affordable for residents and visitors alike.
The full Transperth timetable is available here.
More project information is available via METRONET here.
