Ellenbrook Transfer Station was a Transperth bus station located on the corner of Lord Street and Gnangara Road, in Henley Brook, just south of Ellenbrook. [1] It had 3 stands and was served by 7 Transperth routes operated by Swan Transit.

The transfer station opened in 2006, initially providing bus services to Ellenbrook, Midland, Bassendean, and Morley. [2] In August 2017, bus route 355 was introduced, which travelled to the west of Whiteman to provide a more direct route to the north-western suburbs and to connect to the Joondalup Line, halving the previous travel time. [3]

The transfer station ceased operation on 2 November 2019, being replaced by Henley Brook Bus Station the next day. [4] [1]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Ellenbrook, Western Australia</span> Suburb of Perth, Western Australia

Ellenbrook is a northeastern suburb of Perth, Western Australia, about 30 km (19 mi) from Perth's central business district (CBD), located within the City of Swan. Ellenbrook, and its neighbouring suburbs of The Vines and Aveley, are unusual for Perth in being a significant distance from neighbouring suburbs. Given this relative isolation and the distance from the CBD, Ellenbrook has been designed and developed as a self-sustainable community. Since the upgrade of Gnangara Road and the completion of the Tonkin Highway Northlink, access to Ellenbrook has improved. The Morley–Ellenbrook railway line is well underway as at June 2021 and this will enable better public transport. At the time of the 2016 census there were 22,681 people living in the gazetted suburb, by June 2018, it was estimated that the urban population for Ellenbrook and surrounds had grown to 41,382. It is envisioned that Ellenbrook will eventually become a satellite city, with a population of 80,000.
