Design consultant winner for Aubin Grove rail station, announced

The JV between Coniglio Ainsworth Architects Pty Ltd and M. P. S. Architects (CAMPS) had been selected as the lead design consultant for USD 57 million Aubin Grove train station project (Perth), Western Australian Minister for Transport, Dean Nalder, announced. Georgiou has been appointed as the early contractor involvement (ECI) contractor.
The railway station will be Perth’s largest Park ‘n’ Ride station, has reached a key milestone.
“CAMPS will work closely with Georgiou under an early contractor involvement model. This ensures project planning is on the right track before the construction tender is finalised, and gives the State Government greater certainty on delivering the Aubin Grove Station on time and on budget,” Mr Nalder said.
Projected patronage figures show there will be 3,900 boardings expected at the station every day, the minister explained.
Design and construction of the USD 57 million station will begin in 2015 and be completed late 2016. In addition, the Government has also committed another USD 23 million toward funding two new three-car train sets to cater for increased demand once the station comes online.
