Perth City Link, Urban redevelopment project in Perth, Australia
Perth City Link is a major urban development project connecting the central business district with Northbridge. The connection includes underground railway and bus infrastructure, with residential apartments and commercial spaces integrated throughout the development.
The project began in 2009 on former railway yards that had separated Perth's city center from Northbridge since the 1880s. Removing this physical barrier allowed the city to reunite two sections that had been divided for more than a century.
Yagan Square, named after a Noongar leader, functions as a central meeting point featuring local art installations and food venues. The space draws visitors and residents together, creating a hub for community activity and social gatherings.
The underground bus station uses dynamic stand allocation, directing passengers to specific gates based on their bus arrival. Pay attention to the information displays to find the correct platform for your route.
The project creates five new connections for vehicles and pedestrians, making the city significantly more permeable. These new routes allow people to move between the two neighborhoods easily without lengthy detours.
