Joondalup Station is a Transperth train and bus interchange located 26 kilometres (16.2 mi) north-northwest of Perth railway station in Western Australia, on the Joondalup Line.

Location

Joondalup station is located in downtown Joondalup between two major thoroughfares, Joondalup Drive and Grand Boulevard, making it the first station on the Joondalup Line heading north that is not located in the central reservation of the Mitchell Freeway. The Lakeside Joondalup Shopping City adjoins the station to the northwest and features a number of major world-wide retailers.[1] Lake Joondalup is about a .75 km walk from the station.

History

The station was built in 1990-1992 for the original opening of the Joondalup Line. Prior to the construction of Currambine station in March 1993, Joondalup was the end of the line.

Service

Joondalup is on the Joondalup Line of the Transperth Trains network, a hybrid metro-commuter rail system with five lines in metropolitan Perth. As such, it hosts trains travelling southbound to central Perth and northbound to Clarkson station. Two stopping patterns serve Joondalup station: all stations and C.[2]

In the inbound direction, all stations trains take about 29 minutes, averaging 53.8 km/h (33.4 mph), to travel from Joondalup to Perth.[2] C-pattern trains make all stops to Stirling and then express to Perth, taking 27 minutes at an average of 57.8 km/h (35.9 mph).[2]

In the outbound direction, an all stations train takes about seven minutes, averaging 51.4 km/h (31.9 mph), to travel from Joondalup to Clarkson.[2] C-pattern trains stop at all stations except Leederville and Glendalough; this has no effect for passengers travelling northbound.[2]

Station layout

In contrast to almost all of Perth's railway stations, Joondalup is one of the few sunken stations in the Transperth Trains system. In many respects, its design is quite similar to that of Subiaco on the Fremantle Line in that it is below ground in a growing transport-oriented development precinct.

Joondalup station lies in an open cut north of Collier Place with a busway surrounding the east, west, and northern sides of the station.[1] The majority of parking available at the station is adjacent to the western side of the busway, but some is available to the east. Access to the station is provided by concourses on the northern and southern ends of the platform at street level; as Joondalup is a closed station, there are SmartRider faregates at these locations. Upon passing through the faregates, passengers are able to descend to track level using escalators, staircases, or lifts.[1] At track level, Joondalup utilises a simple island platform layout with two tracks, one on each side. Platform 1 is used by trains heading towards central Perth whilst platform 2 is used by trains bound for Clarkson.
