A tender for engineering and planning for the Morley-Ellenbrook Line has now been awarded, while applications are now open to help develop a business case for the vital METRONET project.

Perth-based consultancy group ARUP has been chosen to work with the METRONET team to investigate and plan the early stages of the Morley-Ellenbrook Line project.

Once the business case has been finalised and a preferred option is confirmed, work will begin to develop the concept designs to inform a final government investment decision, enabling the project to move into procurement and delivery.

A tender for similar work on the Karnup Station project has also been awarded to GHD Pty Ltd. Meanwhile, a tender for the new Midland Station and Midland Line Extension to Bellevue will be awarded soon. 

Local businesses are encouraged to bid for future works related to the METRONET program via http://www.tenders.wa.gov.au
