The Public Transport Authority’s (PTA) vision is to be recognised as a leader in providing world-class public transport services and solutions. As a fast growing economy, Western Australia’s public transport system is recognised as the best in Australia and is one of the most efficient, clean and safe networks in the world. Rail transport is vital for our continued success and growth through our many projects including METRONET to meet the public’s needs and expectations. Moving millions of people needs the skill and commitment of a talented workforce.
The METRONET Railcar Program will deliver 246 new C-series railcars needed for METRONET projects and to replace the ageing A-series trains, and six new diesel railcars to replace the existing Australind service between Perth and Bunbury. To support the manufacture of the railcars and the increase in PTA’s railcar fleet, additional railcar facilities will be constructed at Bellevue. These facilities including an assembly and heavy maintenance facility, separate diesel and electric railcar maintenance facilities along with stabling for up to 18 x 6 car sets.
The design for all the facilities at Bellevue is nearing completion and the PTA will soon be entering into construction contracts for the diesel and electric railcar maintenance facility as well as the stabling yard.
