Alkimos railway station[1] is a proposed station on the Joondalup Line in Perth, Western Australia that is being delivered as part of the Metronet Yanchep rail extension project. Construction of the station Started in 2021, with expected completion in 2023.[2]
The station will include a bus interchange[3] with eight weather-protected stands, and approximately 600 parking bays. The station will also include 10 bicycle parking u-rails, two bike shelters with the ability to add two more, and a dedicated passenger drop-off area.[1]
The station will be situated near the intersection of Marmion Avenue and Romeo Road and will be accessed off a purpose-built street, as part of the DevelopmentWA Alkimos Central development. Approximately 3,616 daily boardings are predicted at Alkimos railway station in 2031. Services to Perth and Yanchep will be provided by Transperth Trains, with the journey to Perth to take approximately 41 minutes.
At the 2021–22 State Budget, it was announced that the Yanchep rail extension had been deferred by 12 months, as a result of Western Australia's skills shortage. This was alongside the deferment of 15 other state government infrastructure projects. The revised opening date is late 2023.[4][5][6]
