Butler is a new railway station on an extension of the Joondalup line. It will be located 7.5 km north of the current terminus of the line at Clarkson Station, in the northern Perth suburb of Butler.[1] Construction of Butler station commenced in 2011 and will be completed in 2014.[2] The new train line will end at a futuristic-looking train and bus station that will have parking for 930 cars. Infrastructure in the $240.7 million project will include three bridges over the train tracks at Landbeach Boulevard, Benenden Avenue and the future Butler Boulevard. The Public Transport Authority estimates more than 2,000 passengers will board at Butler Station every weekday.[3]
