The METRONET Ellenbrook Line is now open! The new line halves public transport journey time for passengers travelling between Ellenbrook and the CBD.

Approximately 21km of new rail line has been constructed and travels from Ellenbrook’s growing town centre, down the western side of Drumpellier Drive, through land north of Marshall Road and down the middle of Tonkin Highway, connecting at Bayswater Station on the Midland Line.

The line starts at Bayswater Station, with new stations at Ellenbrook, Whiteman Park, Ballajura, Noranda and Morley. A future station is planned at Bennett Springs East.
