The exciting Forrestfield-Airport Link project will provide improved bus networks as well as new rail services networks for the Eastern Suburbs, surrounding community and foothills to the Perth CBD and the and train network and transperth buses. The link will have 3,000 parking bays and 3 new stations.

Key Features include:
• Improved bus feeder networks for Airport West Station and Forrestfield Station

Metro Area Express Light Rail (MAX)
Max is Perth’s proposed 22 km light rail network that will run from Mirrabooka, prior to dividing into two, QEII Medical Centre in the west (via West Perth) and Victoria Park Transfer Station in the east (via the Causeway).
This project will present a ground – breaking way of public transport in the City, supporting the city’s transformation by providing a frequent, high-capacity service in the inner-north, central west and eastern suburbs of Perth.
In essence, at the new light rail system which uses electric rail cars are very efficient and quiet will be built on existing streets, but wholly disconnected from overall traffic. The development is intended to enhance and improve the city for the better, aligned with land-use planning with the intention of encouraging new developments along the planned structure.
This is a major transformational project, and the State Government is committed to delivering the project in full. The revised time frame will see procurement start from 2017, construction starting in 2019, with the implementation of transport services estimated to start in 2022.
