The Byford Rail Extension is a big step forward for the Byford and Serpentine-Jarrahdale community. Opened in October 2025, it gives locals a direct 46-minute train ride to Perth’s CBD. The project extended the Armadale Line by 8km, built a new ground-level station in Byford, and upgraded Armadale Station to an elevated design. By removing level crossings and improving traffic flow, it’s making life easier for everyone in the area.
For us, it was a chance to bring local, female and Indigenous workers onto a major rail project.
