Meltham railway station


Meltham Railway Station is a Transperth railway station from Perth railway station, in Western Australia, on the Midland Line.

Overview

A station at this location was promised in 1898, but despite repeated calls by the City of Bayswater to build it, it wasn't until 1947 that the Western Australian Government agreed to construct the station. The station officially opened in 1948.
In 2012, Meltham station was upgraded to comply with accessibility and safety requirements. This included resurfacing the platform, an extension to the car park and public art.
In 2016, the Public Transport Authority said that closing stations with low patronage was a possibility. On a typical weekday, 524 passengers use Meltham station. The Public Transport Authority later said that there were no immediate plans to close the station, in response to fears that Meltham would be closed.
Construction to add 100 bays to the northern carpark at Meltham station started in February 2020, and is set to be finished mid 2020. This is due to the 180 bays that will be permanently removed at Bayswater station in late 2020 due to the construction of the new Bayswater station.
