Location Location of Joondalup railway station

Joondalup railway station is a railway station on the Transperth network. It is located on the Yanchep line, 26 kilometres from Perth station serving the regional metropolitan city of Joondalup.

History

Joondalup station was built by Sabemo under a $5.2 million contract.[2] Construction began in November 1991.[3] Sabemo's parent company, Transfield, was awarded the main award at the state Master Builders Association's Excellence in Construction Awards in 1993.[4]

Joondalup station opened on 20 December 1992 as the interim terminus of the Joondalup line (now called the Yanchep line),[5] before being extended to Currambine in August 1993.[6]

In 2003, the contract for extending the platforms on seven Joondalup line stations, including Joondalup station, was awarded to Lakis Constructions. The platforms on these stations had to be extended by 50 metres (160 ft) to accommodate 150-metre (490 ft) long six-car trains, which were planned to enter service. Along with the extensions, the platform edges were upgraded to bring them into line with tactile paving standards.[7] Work on this station was done in mid-2004.[8]

Services

Joondalup station is served by Transperth Yanchep line services.[9]

Joondalup station is served by the following Transperth bus routes, including the Central Area Transit (CAT) services which operate a free shuttle around the suburb on weekdays and selected public holidays. These routes are primarily operated by two electric buses in a special red livery, which entered service in February 2022 as the first fully electric buses for Transperth. In mid-2022, two more electric buses entered service in a normal green livery, operating fare-paying routes around the area. These buses are charged nightly at the Joondalup Bus Depot.
