Morley railway station, Perth

A bus interchange is located on the southern side of the bridge and a multi-storey car park is to the south-west.

Early works under the Tonkin Gap project started in November 2020, which included the replacement of the Broun Avenue bridge, which occurred throughout 2022.

Feeder bus routes serve the surrounding area, including the Galleria Shopping Centre.

The station is within the median strip of Tonkin Highway at the Broun Avenue flyover and is on the Ellenbrook line, which is part of the Transperth system.

Morley station consists of an island platform within the Tonkin Highway median strip underneath a bridge.

[1][2] The 1955 Plan for the Metropolitan Region, Perth and Fremantle, also known as the Stephenson–Hepburn Report, proposed a 7+1⁄2-mile (12 km) railway line branching off the Eastern Railway (Midland line) at Bayswater, then heading north through Morley to reach Walter Road and then north-west to terminate near Wanneroo Road.

[10][11] Constructing the Ellenbrook line by 2023 as part of the Metronet project was committed to by the Labor Party before it won the 2017 state election.

[15] The route of the Ellenbrook line was officially revealed in August 2019, confirming that it would run in the Tonkin Highway median strip and that Morley station would be located at Broun Avenue.

[16][17][18] As part of the Tonkin Gap project, enabling works were completed for the Ellenbrook line, which included modifications to drainage and barriers along Tonkin Highway and a rebuild of the Broun Avenue bridge for the Morley station bus interchange.

[19] The A$753 million main construction contract for the Morley–Ellenbrook line was awarded to the MELconnx Consortium, consisting of Laing O'Rourke, in October 2020.

[20][21][22] In April 2022, the thirty-eight-year-old Broun Avenue bridge was demolished, which required a weekend shutdown of Tonkin Highway.
