During the Shutdown, train replacement bus Route 901 will operate between Bassendean and Midland.

The train replacement bus stops are recognisable by the red and white decals with “Train Replacement” marked on the stop. It is also important to note that regular timetabled services may not connect with train replacement services. 

If you are unsure about where the train replacement stop is at your station, you can check our Station Access Maps or speak to one of our friendly staff.

Bikes and Scooters 

Due to restricted space, bicycles are not permitted on Transperth buses, including train replacement services.

Manual scooters are permitted on bus services at any time. They are defined as those that are powered by foot, are manual and are not propelled by a motor. 

Motorised scooters are not permitted on bus services unless they are folded up and placed in an appropriately designed, fit for purpose carry bag. They are defined as powered by an electric motor, not fuel or other combustible liquids.

Please note that during peak times, PTA staff have the discretion to restrict passengers with an e-scooter travelling if they identify any safety concerns such as overcrowding. The PTA advises passengers using e-scooters to avoid planning their journey in the peak flow direction during peak hours to minimise potential delays.

Fares

Please note that normal ticketing applies to all train replacement services. 

Car Park 
During the shutdown, approximately 96 parking bays (including 6 ACROD bays) at Midland Station will be closed to facilitate train replacement services.

Pick up/set down location 
The pickup/set-down bays will be relocated to the remaining parking area accessible off Victoria St.  A number of accessible car parking bays will also be relocated. 

Consider alternative options 

Catch a timetabled bus, cycle, walk, or get dropped off at the station. Passengers normally parking at Midland Station can instead park at Guildford (482 bays) or High Wycombe (1,200 bays) stations.

Accessible bays will be repositioned within the train replacement departure area. Please show your ACROD permit to traffic controllers to access these bays. 

Travel times will be longer so we recommended you plan ahead and consider alternative travel and work arrangements where possible.
