The Yanchep Rail Extension will deliver the last proposed section of the Joondalup Line from Butler to Yanchep.
The 14.5 kilometre extension is underway and will see new stations built at Alkimos, Eglinton and Yanchep. Butler Station will become a ‘through’ station.
The project will give more than 150,000 residents another transport option and will cut public transport journey times by at least 30 minutes from the city.
In late-2023, track were laid through Eglinton and Yanchep stations.
It is expected the project will also help develop activity centres by stimulating new employment opportunities and long term residential and commercial purposes around the stations.
