Victoria Park-Canning Level Crossing Removal

The Victoria Park-Canning Level Crossing Removal project has delivered five new elevated stations to improve public transport safety, reduce traffic congestion and create versatile community spaces.

The new and modern elevated stations are in operation at Carlisle, Oats Street, Queens Park, Cannington and Beckenham stations.

Six level crossings were removed along the Armadale Line and all boom gates at level crossings between Victoria Park and Beckenham have been been dismantled. Welshpool Station has permanently closed. 

Long Park has been delivered as part of this project. Stretching seven kilometres, the six-hectare Long Park features 14 community spaces, including a public art trail, playgrounds, skate parks, dog and fitness parks and youth plazas with sports courts. New shared paths have also been built throughout the parkland area.

During the Armadale Line closure, the Public Transport Authority also delivered the Rail Revitalisation Program, undertaking major maintenance and upgrades between Kenwick and Sherwood stations. The work includes the renewal of 15 kilometres of track, 25 pedestrian crossings,10 level crossings, and improved drainage systems.
