The project is Perth’s first major elevated rail designed to improve public transport safety, create new and versatile public space for the community and reduce traffic congestion.
Six level crossings will be removed along the Armadale Line by raising the rail over the road at Mint Street, Oats Street, Welshpool Road, Hamilton Street, Wharf Street and William Street.
New modern elevated stations will be built at Carlisle, Oats Street, Queens Park, Cannington and Beckenham while Welshpool Station will be permanently closed.
Recently, design images showing concepts for several stations and new public open spaces were released for the first time, as part of planning for this major project.
