Woodhead was commissioned to undertake the masterplanning for upgrade works to the existing station, including a new bus interchange facilities platform and extended parking facilities.

Three access options were developed in full discussion with Westrail, MRD and Bassendean Council underpass, overpass and on grade crossing.

A key issue was access across Guildford Road to connect with the existing Old Perth Road mall.

Local pedestrian routes were integrated with the new facility and bike routes were also included.

Town planning considerations such as public safety were also addressed.
