The project is located on the traditional lands of the Whadjuk people of the Noongar nation.
Western Australia
The METRONET Morley-Ellenbrook Line Project delivers 5 new stations and precincts at Morley, Noranda, Ballajura, Whiteman Park and Ellenbrook. The project spans 21 kilometres through the growing northeast suburbs of Perth, and at $1.65 billion, is a transformative investment in public transport in Western Australia.
The breadth and scale of the project provided a unique opportunity for the design team to create a line-wide identity and cohesive architectural narrative. Highly public in nature, the stations are designed to be durable environments that are warm, welcoming and resilient.
The stations implement passive design that maximises natural daylight and ventilation to the interior spaces. Integrated artwork creates subtle yet dynamic station environments as the sun moves through the day, while skylights offer composed views of landscape and sky. The stations are designed to be safe, inclusive and accessible, day or night.
“Woods Bagot’s innovative approach to functionality, safety, and aesthetic appeal ensured that Morley to Ellenbrook Line stations met operational requirements and enhanced the user experience. Their thoughtful design solutions enabled the project to address both the practical and environmental considerations, creating stations each with a unique character and sense of place.
Throughout the project, Woods Bagot maintained open lines of communication, worked diligently to meet project milestones, and consistently provided resolution to any challenges that arose. Their commitment to excellence was evident in every phase and the project is incredibly proud of the final results.” – Nick Andrioff Laing O’Rourke
