In the large number of suburbs west of the Kwinana Freeway from the Swan River to Russell Road, it is proposed to alter the route network to preserve a range of established travel patterns. In particular, the major activity generators of Fremantle and the Garden City Shopping Centre, including the Booragoon Bus Station, will remain a focal point for bus routes. Bus - Train transfer stations will be built on the SWMR at: Canning Bridge Leach Highway, Bull Creek South Street, Murdoch Thomsons Lake Thomas Road, Kwinana Leda Rockingham Waikiki Mandurah The following feeder bus routes are proposed for the above transfer stations: Canning Bridge - This station will become a significant transfer point for students and staff attending Curtin University, which will result in a substantial upgrade of the existing bus route link. A number of routes from the Melville side of the Kwinana Freeway will continue to travel into Perth via the Freeway, with bus priority at key locations. For the most part, services in the South Perth / Como areas will maintain their current routes (eg, via Labouchere Road) as there is very limited potential to adjust them to effectively serve this station. Leach Highway, Bull Creek - This station will be the terminus for a number of feeder services from various suburbs situated both east and west of the Kwinana Freeway. In addition there will be 2 or 3 bus feeder routes operating through suburbs between Leach Highway and South Street stations. South Street, Murdoch - This station will be the terminus for a number of feeder services from various suburbs situated both east and west of the Kwinana Freeway, as well as a timed point for services operating between the coastal communities and some southeast suburbs, particularly the highly popular CircleRoute. In addition, there will be 2 feeder routes operating through suburbs between the South Street and Thomsons Lake stations, as well as the routes between Leach Highway and South Street. South Street is already a significant interchange point in the Transperth route network and has the nearby Murdoch University campus as a major activity generator. Thomsons Lake - As a Strategic Regional Centre there are already extensive bus services focused on this location (currently at Gateways Shopping Centre Park&Ride), including a primary link with Fremantle. These will be adjusted and upgraded as necessary and supplemented in later years by extensions to a future station at Mandogalup (Russell Road). Thomas Road, Kwinana - Services will operate in a number of loops between this station and the Kwinana Hub Shopping Centre (connection point with the 900 Series route to Fremantle), with 2 of the loops continuing through and to/from Leda Station. Rockingham - As a Strategic Regional Centre, there are already extensive bus services focused on the Rockingham City Centre. When train services on the SWMR begin, these bus services will be restructured to serve the rail station as well as the City Centre. There will also be some bus feeder routes through suburbs between Rockingham and Waikiki stations. Waikiki - Bus services starting in suburbs south of Waikiki (including Mandurah) will be restructured to serve the station, in addition to routes to and from Rockingham station. Mandurah - This station, part of which is now under construction, will become established as the regional public transport hub in the Mandurah area. The existing local bus services will be restructured, upgraded and augmented to serve the rail station as well as the Mandurah City Centre. (2) New MetroRail is developing a traffic management plan to minimise the disruption to public transport users and motorists during construction of the railway along the Kwinana Freeway. The plan will alter during different phases of construction. Generally, northbound buses from Canning Highway will run to the City in the innermost lane adjacent to the concrete barriers near the railway. Southbound buses will run in general traffic lanes as far as the off-ramp at Canning Bridge. To use this ramp, they will merge to the innermost lane, some distance prior to Canning Bridge. While it will be impossible to construct the railway without some disruption to traffic, traffic management planning will minimise the impact on general traffic and, in particular, on public transport users. It is important to recognise the scale of this project and the benefits it will bring to the community in the longer term. (3) During construction of the railway works within the Kwinana Freeway, every effort will be made to minimise the disruption to freeway users. A traffic management plan has been prepared which specifically addresses this issue and has been used as the basis for further planning for the construction phase. There has been extensive consultation with Main Roads WA and Transperth and their requirements will be fully considered in the preparation of the construction contract documents so that the contractor is strictly controlled in his activities to ensure that construction works are properly managed and disruption is kept to a minimum.

Bus - Train transfer stations will be built on the SWMR at: Canning Bridge Leach Highway, Bull Creek South Street, Murdoch Thomsons Lake Thomas Road, Kwinana Leda Rockingham Waikiki Mandurah The following feeder bus routes are proposed for the above transfer stations: Canning Bridge - This station will become a significant transfer point for students and staff attending Curtin University, which will result in a substantial upgrade of the existing bus route link. A number of routes from the Melville side of the Kwinana Freeway will continue to travel into Perth via the Freeway, with bus priority at key locations. For the most part, services in the South Perth / Como areas will maintain their current routes (eg, via Labouchere Road) as there is very limited potential to adjust them to effectively serve this station. Leach Highway, Bull Creek - This station will be the terminus for a number of feeder services from various suburbs situated both east and west of the Kwinana Freeway. In addition there will be 2 or 3 bus feeder routes operating through suburbs between Leach Highway and South Street stations. South Street, Murdoch - This station will be the terminus for a number of feeder services from various suburbs situated both east and west of the Kwinana Freeway, as well as a timed point for services operating between the coastal communities and some southeast suburbs, particularly the highly popular CircleRoute. In addition, there will be 2 feeder routes operating through suburbs between the South Street and Thomsons Lake stations, as well as the routes between Leach Highway and South Street. South Street is already a significant interchange point in the Transperth route network and has the nearby Murdoch University campus as a major activity generator. Thomsons Lake - As a Strategic Regional Centre there are already extensive bus services focused on this location (currently at Gateways Shopping Centre Park&Ride), including a primary link with Fremantle. These will be adjusted and upgraded as necessary and supplemented in later years by extensions to a future station at Mandogalup (Russell Road). Thomas Road, Kwinana - Services will operate in a number of loops between this station and the Kwinana Hub Shopping Centre (connection point with the 900 Series route to Fremantle), with 2 of the loops continuing through and to/from Leda Station. Rockingham - As a Strategic Regional Centre, there are already extensive bus services focused on the Rockingham City Centre. When train services on the SWMR begin, these bus services will be restructured to serve the rail station as well as the City Centre. There will also be some bus feeder routes through suburbs between Rockingham and Waikiki stations. Waikiki - Bus services starting in suburbs south of Waikiki (including Mandurah) will be restructured to serve the station, in addition to routes to and from Rockingham station. Mandurah - This station, part of which is now under construction, will become established as the regional public transport hub in the Mandurah area. The existing local bus services will be restructured, upgraded and augmented to serve the rail station as well as the Mandurah City Centre. (2) New MetroRail is developing a traffic management plan to minimise the disruption to public transport users and motorists during construction of the railway along the Kwinana Freeway. The plan will alter during different phases of construction. Generally, northbound buses from Canning Highway will run to the City in the innermost lane adjacent to the concrete barriers near the railway. Southbound buses will run in general traffic lanes as far as the off-ramp at Canning Bridge. To use this ramp, they will merge to the innermost lane, some distance prior to Canning Bridge. While it will be impossible to construct the railway without some disruption to traffic, traffic management planning will minimise the impact on general traffic and, in particular, on public transport users. It is important to recognise the scale of this project and the benefits it will bring to the community in the longer term. (3) During construction of the railway works within the Kwinana Freeway, every effort will be made to minimise the disruption to freeway users. A traffic management plan has been prepared which specifically addresses this issue and has been used as the basis for further planning for the construction phase. There has been extensive consultation with Main Roads WA and Transperth and their requirements will be fully considered in the preparation of the construction contract documents so that the contractor is strictly controlled in his activities to ensure that construction works are properly managed and disruption is kept to a minimum.
Canning Bridge - This station will become a significant transfer point for students and staff attending Curtin University, which will result in a substantial upgrade of the existing bus route link. A number of routes from the Melville side of the Kwinana Freeway will continue to travel into Perth via the Freeway, with bus priority at key locations. For the most part, services in the South Perth / Como areas will maintain their current routes (eg, via Labouchere Road) as there is very limited potential to adjust them to effectively serve this station. Leach Highway, Bull Creek - This station will be the terminus for a number of feeder services from various suburbs situated both east and west of the Kwinana Freeway. In addition there will be 2 or 3 bus feeder routes operating through suburbs between Leach Highway and South Street stations. South Street, Murdoch - This station will be the terminus for a number of feeder services from various suburbs situated both east and west of the Kwinana Freeway, as well as a timed point for services operating between the coastal communities and some southeast suburbs, particularly the highly popular CircleRoute. In addition, there will be 2 feeder routes operating through suburbs between the South Street and Thomsons Lake stations, as well as the routes between Leach Highway and South Street. South Street is already a significant interchange point in the Transperth route network and has the nearby Murdoch University campus as a major activity generator. Thomsons Lake - As a Strategic Regional Centre there are already extensive bus services focused on this location (currently at Gateways Shopping Centre Park&Ride), including a primary link with Fremantle. These will be adjusted and upgraded as necessary and supplemented in later years by extensions to a future station at Mandogalup (Russell Road). Thomas Road, Kwinana - Services will operate in a number of loops between this station and the Kwinana Hub Shopping Centre (connection point with the 900 Series route to Fremantle), with 2 of the loops continuing through and to/from Leda Station. Rockingham - As a Strategic Regional Centre, there are already extensive bus services focused on the Rockingham City Centre. When train services on the SWMR begin, these bus services will be restructured to serve the rail station as well as the City Centre. There will also be some bus feeder routes through suburbs between Rockingham and Waikiki stations. Waikiki - Bus services starting in suburbs south of Waikiki (including Mandurah) will be restructured to serve the station, in addition to routes to and from Rockingham station.
