(a) Yes.
(b) Preliminary findings have shown there is available land for additional parking at the Perth end of the station, on Whatley Crescent. Detailed planning and design of the car parking arrangements will commence in the 2011 financial year.
(c) Decisions regarding provision of additional car parks will be made following completion of the planning process.
(i) The cost and number of car bays that can be provided cannot be ascertained until more detailed planning and design occurs.
(d) Yes. The newly extended southern car park does not reach capacity, however people are still choosing to park on Railway Parade, north-east of the station as that location is closer to the station.
