Tramway Extension Project Media Release
On the 11th of February the Western Australian Transport Minister the Hon. Rita Saffioti publicly announced our tramway extension project to the public for the first time. The State Government is committing over $1 million to the project, with an expected completion date of December 2024.
The 1.6km extension will provide a new tram stop at the under construction METRONET Whiteman Park Station. The project will also help better connect the many attractions in Whiteman Park to local and international tourists.
"Preserving rail history and providing a genuine rail heritage experience is important for visitors to Western Australia and all of us who enjoy a day out at Whiteman Park,” Transport Minister Rita Saffioti said.
The project is being constructed using 85% recycled materials which includes rail, sleepers, turnouts, catch points and ballast.
