Cannington is a temporarily closed railway station on the Armadale and Thornlie lines, serving the suburb of Cannington south of Perth, Western Australia. It is located Шаблон:Convert from Perth Station, and is part of the Transperth commuter rail network. It temporarily closed on 20 November 2023 as part of the Victoria Park-Canning Level Crossing Removal Project.

History

The original Cannington station was located between Station Street and Crawford Road in East Cannington, and was one of the original stations operational when the Armadale Line opened in 1889. As part of the electrification of the line in the early 1990s, the original Cannington station was replaced by a new station Шаблон:Convert to the north-west.

Future

Шаблон:Further As part of a Metronet project for several level crossing removals on the Armadale line, Cannington Station will be rebuilt as a new elevated station with island platforms, and a larger, 16 stand bus interchange underneath the station platforms. The new platforms will be the length of a six car train, as opposed to the current platforms which are the length of a four car train. The station platforms will be accessed by lift and stairs, with provisions for escalators and fare gates to be added in the future. The project will also replace the siding south-east of the station with a central double-ended turnback siding to allow the safe reversal of future six-car trains.

To allow for the construction of the new stations and rail line, the Armadale and Thornlie Lines closed for 18 months on 20 November 2023. Cannington station was demolished shortly after, with works on the new station and elevated rail beginning in 2024. A temporary bus interchange was constructed on Cecil Avenue to assist with the operation of replacement bus services during the shutdown.
