Bulleen Park & Ride was delivered as the first component of the North East Link and Eastern Freeway Upgrade. The new premium bus station is the first part of the Eastern Busway Melbourne’s first dedicated busway from Doncaster towards the city.
The park and ride features parking for 370 cars in a two-level car park building, bike storage, pickup and drop-off bays and premium station and platform amenities. The car park is embedded into the landform with a 5,000m2 green roof and extensive site landscaping. The Koonung Creek Trail walking and cycling path connects with the facility via the rooftop community park, further activating the space.
The park and ride is the first of its type in Melbourne and is based on the rail station model offering high quality patron amenity. The car park, bus platform and rooftop park are seamlessly connected into the local residential neighborhood.
Serving as Melbourne’s first premium bus station, Bulleen Park and Ride innovatively blends a multilevel park and ride facility with public open space to deliver a high-quality outcome that attracts and connects both passengers and the local community.
Bulleen Park & Ride services its community with access to frequent and reliable public transport through the provision of a well integrated and accessible facility that ties together multiple strategic networks with better connections for Victorians.
