Evolve Bayswater Alliance (Coleman Rail) has been selected as the preferred proponent to design and build the new Bayswater Station project as part of METRONET project in Western Australia.
Expected to create more than 350 jobs, the new station will form a major transport hub that will link the Midland Line to METRONET’s future Forrestfield-Airport Link and Morley-Ellenbrook Line, as well as key cycling routes.
