Our Vision: Armadale’s Central Park will be a dynamic, multi-use space that bridges the new Armadale Train Station – currently being delivered as part of the METRONET Byford Rail Extension Project – and the City Centre. The new Armadale Station will be elevated, allowing space under the station to be transformed into a lively station forecourt and an inviting green space, Central Park will offer something for everyone—a regional nature play space, exciting youth facilities, and a welcoming environment for locals and visitors alike. This park isn’t just about green space; it’s about sparking the revival of the station precinct, and breathing new life into Armadale. Central Park is set to be a powerful catalyst and the center piece of the transformation of Armadale's inner-city. By creating strong connections between this major destination and landmark park cross the Jull Street Mall and west of the railway line, we’ll draw more visitors and foot traffic which will help re-energising local businesses, and make the mall a welcoming hub of activity.
What’s in it for our community?
๐ A New Vibrant Community Hub: Imagine an 8.8-hectare public space at the city’s core, connecting you to the City centre and the entire Perth rail network.
๐ A Regional Destination: Picture an iconic youth and play space that draws visitors from all over Perth, right into the heart of Armadale, increasing foot traffic and creating opportunities for local shops and cafes to thrive.
