Every third person works for the mining industry, which doesn't help with this aspect either.\r Pros:\r- Accessible beaches - Most pristine beaches and within 20-30 minutes of most places!

But as a local there are a couple of things that tourism video's don't cover. 1. The city at night particularly from Kings Park, south of the city and from the Darling Range. 2. Whilst in the Darling Ranges the night sky. The Milky Way is beautiful. At particular times of the year best from early summer the clouds of stars are just stunning and the clusters are so big you feel like you can reach up and touch them. Bush walks. Places like Serpentine falls which in late August for a couple of days you have hundreds of thousands of butterflies, kids love them. But also wild kangaroos, echidna's, emu's and lots of different bird species. 3. Perth is not a tourist city as much so all the facilities are built for local families. The towns both inland and along the coast are destinations for holidaying families so they are all geared up for families who culturally do not demand 5 star facilities but rather practical things like access to natural wildlife, cooking, showering, lawn areas under shady trees, boat ramps and kids play grounds. 4 Penguin Island. Situated near Rockingham south of the city it is home to a colony of Fairy Penguins. The injured penguin sanctuary puts on a display and informative talk. During spring the island becomes a major breading ground for sea gulls and pelicans and it is very noisy. There you will regularly see dolphins and seals. But also the limestone formations showcase millions of years of evolution where you can see where ancient Forrests once stood. Fishing, diving and snorkeling are also popular but no camping. The Island is closed during the penguin moulting period. 5. Deep sea fishing. Some 15 kilometers off Rottnest Island is the Perth trench. It is a deep sea trench that equals the size of the grand canyon. Next to some of the best deep seas specias like blue bone grouper you have a major blue whale breeding ground, a major feeding ground for migrating hump back whales and some huge great white sharks.

The line to North has now opened and renamed as the Yanchep Line adding the three new stations and 14km of track.2. The Airport Line has opened and is located in the T1/T2 terminal precinct. This Line has a terminus in Forrestfield (beyond the airport) and the other terminus is Claremont station which sits physically on the Fremantle Line. So the airport line physically uses the rail in the Fremantle and midland lines before the newer underground tracks to the airport being the actual new lines.Also, Perth airport has 4 terminals! This line is connected T1/2 but Qantas, a major airline operates their terminals on T3/4 and this is across the runway and has no dedicated station, instead one needs to catch a shuttle bus to those terminals. In better news, Qantas will be building a new terminal and shifting operations to the T1/2 side in 2031...a lot can happen between now and then though. 3. The Morley-Ellenbrook line is in full construction. Ellenbrook is a kind of satellite suburb built on the promise of transit some 20 years ago. It took a change in government to one that is transit oriented for this line to come about.4. The Alstom X'trapolis based C series rolling stock is being manufactured in Perth. The outer shell is imported, but significant aspects of the train are forged in Perth including final assembly. This included the construction of a new factory in Perth. Not something done in a city of 2M people. The first three 6-car trains are running on the Yanchep and Mandurah lines and the remaining 31 six car sets will be progressively rolled out. These trains allow for progressive retirement of the A series stock, enables the B series to then service the Fremantle, Midland and Armadale lines which in turn means transit passengers on the Mandurah/Yanchep/Ellenbrook lines will enjoy the latest in rolling stock.5. One significant item that was only a thought bubble 2 years ago when this video was released is that the entire Armadale line is currently shut and being reconstructed. Changes include 7km of viaduct to grade separate much (but not all) of the line which means rail crossings for cars are greatly reduced. This also introduces brand new stations as the old ones were demolished. Two points are that Welshpool station is retired when the line opens, and the line will be extended to Byford so we expect the line will be known as the Byford line.6. Finally, the Cockburn Thorlie link is delayed as it connects into the future Byford line at the Thornlie spur. All work at Cockburn Central station is complete...being new platform and turn points, as is the introduction of 2 extra tracks on the freeway corridor (2x for Mandurah line, 2x for the Cockburn Thornlie Link). The three new stations are under construction but timing aligned to line up with the opening of the Byford line in late 2025. Otherwise, it's a limited transit dead end.7.

Foruntately, the relevant government's instead scooped up the secondhand trains at basement prices from Perth in 1992 and 1993. Ridership finally started to increase after decades of decline. This began a gradual revival of Auckland's rail network:In 1995, the old post office in downtown Auckland was purchased by the government for reopening as a transit hub: this eventually came to pass in 2003 as Britomart (now Waitemata), allowing trains to actually run into Auckland CBD, and coincided with a general increase in service. At the same time, secondhand British Mk2s converted to narrow gauge used as push pull sets were used to increase capacity.In the early 2010s, service was expanded with the new service Helensville in 2008 (ultiamtely axed), Onehunga Branch reponening in 2010 and the Manukau staiton opening 2012. This all coincided with a government intiative to FINALLY electrify the Auckland Rail system (which almost happened- twice in the 1950s and 1970s, only for the National Party to say no), completed in 2015. The wires are now also set to expand down the rest of the Southern Line next year, thus making the system 100% electric.Then in 2021, the Te Huia train began, finally giving Auckland a regional train connection to Hamilton in the same way Wellington has the Capital Connection and the Wairarpara Connection. The service has expanded to have 2-3 trips everyday (except sundays), so starting to feel more a regional train than commuter train. Hopefully, the new government doesn't can the service this June. (Kinda wish they would run the service with a diesel and and an electric locomotive to allow the service to run into Britomart; would probably attract more people than running it to Strand)And of course we have CityRail Link, (which also almost happened in the 1970s), which will really turn Auckland's Rail into an S-Bahn.Now if only we could connect Auckland Rail to the airport.I love being an American who did all this research on NZ transport history, lol.Anyway, great video.", "extra_info": "" }, { "sentence": "I've lived in Perth for 10 years now. The train is on-time, fast and smooth, and usually not too crowded. The network is a bit lacking if you live directly north or north-east of the CBD. A major failing has been the long-delayed train line out to Ellenbrook. Perth really lacks any sort of spider-web connecting its suburbs without going through the CBD first. A perfect example of this is the most popular inner suburbs for restaurants and bars are Subiaco, Leederville and Mount Lawley, however these have no bus routes or train lines connecting to each other. For this reason, most people in Perth choose to drive everywhere or are kind of forced to take a taxi/Uber if they plan on drinking or going somewhere parking is an issue.

I am vision impaired and have a strong interest in public transport and urban planning. For years I was unimpressed with this city's public transport network and especially its railway but I have watched it grow and develop as my family lives in the south-central suburbs which relieds heavily on the Mandurah line (which like the Joon-dahl-up line is a metro, suburban railway and regional railway all rolled into one) and will be soon connected to the Thronlie-Cockburn line. The city has unique problems in that its population density is the third lowest while its distribution is officially the world's largest. However incremental bus service changes over the years have seen gradual improvements in connecting all these distant suburbs. I now live between Bull Creek and Fremantle stations which is an interesting case study because I rarely utilise Bull Creek station. In fact I actively avoid it during outbound journeys because of having to cross the truck-intensive Leach Highway. For city bound journeys I tend to catch the 160 bus because a stop for which is just 100m away and there is no need to connect between bus and train. I'm of the belief that when the Thornlie-Cockburn link is opened the 160 bus should be re-routed down the North Lake Road to Cockburn station while a new route is reimagined so it assumes the section of the 160 that commences once the bus enters Archibald St. The system is far from perfect and more needs to be done to encourage people to abandon their cars. Perth remains a city bound by the automobile in spite of its good public transport system and there are definite PT dead zones including where my family is situated. The future Fremantle extension of the Thornlie-Cockburn link was quietly shelved by the current government which is a shame as Fremantle is in need of a little TLC. Bus links leading south from Freo also leave a lot ot be desired while light rail between Murdoch and Fremantle has been mooted forever but looks to become a new Hobart light rail... We'd love to have you here!

The isolation of Perth has been a major driver for the public transport system. The isolation kept a lid on growth up until relatively recently that fortunately allowed a lot of masterplanning to address the eventual expansion fed by the booming resource & agricultural sector. Our economic strength (recently rated #1 in the world) allowed politicians to be brave and think outside the box. Using the freeway median was un-tried anywhere in the world but because the state government still controlled all public transport, an integrated solution became possible. Every freeway effectively becomes a train\\bus conduit that can then facillitate urban densification around major station hubs This even filters down to free bus transport in the CBD and Fremantle negating the need for expensive underground rail loops. The next phase will be to leverage the attractiveness of the system for living. Major interchanges wil become high density nodes and the rail network will encourage suburban expansion in a more efficient manner. Lastly the car has not been forgotten as upgrading the road network has been on-going for the last 20 years and features a nearly 200km long freeway to Bunbury in the south.

They used to have trains departing each station on the Joondalup/Mandurah lines every 4 minutes (sometimes 2 minutes if an \"express\" service was before another train). They not only shortened the peak period at which trains run frequently, but also extended time between each service. They also drove up transit fairs to a point where it was cheaper to drive into the city and pay for parking. Luckily the fair price was slashed recently, but the lengthy wait times remain. Some have hypothesised it was done to have more people per service running, making it cheaper for Transperth. This had an almost opposite effect to what I think they thought would happen: More people started commuting by car rather than train.Yes, there are plenty of bus services departing from the train stations; however, they are even more limited than what is advertised. They do not cover enough area frequently enough to make it worth while using bus services. This in turn causes fewer people to commute by train due to inconvenience.Apart from the rant I just gave, I can say the services are for the most part kept clean (depending on which line you are on of course).

Interesting to see your take on our rail system however it still has a lot of issues. Our trains are fast but our stations are sparse and last mile public transit is an absolute nightmare in many parts of the city. Our city has a particularly low population density because most people live in large houses on large blocks of land and our urban planning has historically been centred around owning a car - very similar to American cities. The result is that unless you live close to a train station (most people don't), you will have to take a bus to your final destination and these buses are low in frequency (compared to many European cities), often out-of-sync with the train timetable and take a long time to reach their destination because of the distances they need to travel and the high frequency of stops needed to serve all of the areas on their routes. The urban sprawl also means that you may end up walking almost half a kilometre to get to the bus stop from your house. The result is that most people just chose to drive unless they are commuting to the central business district in peak hour, when there is nowhere to park. In peak hour, some people are able to make use of park 'n ride facilities but these aren't available at all stations (underground carparks might help solve this but they would cost the government a lot of money I don't think they are willing to spend). There are also many suburbs where a rail line or a station with park 'n ride facilities is not within a reasonable distance which means a slow, frequently-stopping peak hour direct bus into the CBD is the fastest means of public transport. If I could drive to work, it would take me 12 minutes however on public transport, it takes 45 minutes! Cycling is an option but the distance is such that I would have to shower and change clothes at work due to the sweat which ultimately adds another 15 minutes to the effective time before I'm at my desk.

As not everyone can live in Cottesloe, development has turned north-south along the coast. And suburbs started to get further and further out. The original stretch of freeway to the south didn't have a train line attached (hence the more expensive tunnels etc. to retro fit a line), but the northern freeway that connected new norther suburbs which came with the northern rail line. I think the strategy works well for Perth. Future suburbs are likely to be north and south along the coast.

There is a short chord at Kenwick Station already extant that connects the Armadale Line to the existing freight line6. Should it become necessary in the future, the Thornlie-Cockburn link could be easily extended along existing freight corridors to Fremantle Station. Part of that line south of Fremantle Station previously saw passenger trains during the America's Cup in 19877. whilst no active provision has been made for it (rather short sightedly) there is a future possibility of a direct connection between the Ellenbrook Line and the Airport Line to enable direct trains from Ellenbrook to the Airport and southwards towards Cockburn Central and Mandurah, but that would be many years in the future.8. operationally trains from the Airport Line will generally run through to Claremont on the Fremantle line to minimise terminating trains at Perth Station.

I live along the armadale line, what's also really brilliant is that that line is undergoing grade separation works in 2023.

Another note about the airport line, I am hoping that it opens in October, because at that point i'll be able to finally do what I did in Singapore and Sydney, and take the train to the airport for the first time ever. For reference, the 935 and 40 Bus routes are some of the busiest in perth!Another crucial part of keeping car traffic off the roads is the CAT bus system, where it's a hop-on, hop-off bus system designed to loop the cities of Joondalup, (Pronounced JOON-d'-lup, not joon-DA-llup, btw.) Fremantle (their CATs are Orange!) and of course, Perth. I'd love to see the crucial blue, Red and Yellow CATs of the CBD turned into light rail, or trolleybuses at least, especially considering how often these buses get used. it'd also make them way easier for wheelchair users to access as you could just use a low-floor tram or a raised platform. I absolutely like the idea of your ring railroad connection though, it's probably doable seeing as there's freight lines that go through the kewdale-forrestfield-maida vale area that connect to the midland railway workshops and could provide some coverage to the industrial areas to the north of the city. Tonkin Highway also extends out to as far as Bullsbrook, where a lot of development will more than likely occur past 2050. Also, our cycling network is also REALLY interesting, as a budding cyclist. The Principal Shared Path or PSP scheme essentially creates a cycling superhighway all across the city, with major links running through similar corridors that highly trafficked roads and rail lines use, on specially designed surfaces so that cyclists can use for maximum speed. the material uses way, way finer bitumen compounds and thus results in lower friction for cycle tires. Where there are breaks in the PSP there's also signage to direct riders to where other PSPs are, or where the recommended route is. It's definitely nowhere near as good as Denmark, but getting around on a bike, despite the size of the city is absolutely doable. Our roads are also only as wide as they need to be. In suburbs the roads are quite narrow, and in more dense areas they are deliberately small to help calm traffic. The other aspect of Metronet too is the development of areas surrounding the train stations, i.e, what kind of property and businesses are going to be able to be built there. Essentially with Metronet, the idea is that each station's going to get turned into like, a metropolitan hub where there's medium density housing and businesses placed close to the train station.

The larger stations too are very well designed with plenty of amenities; shelter and very easy interchange with bus services. It's the little things too that make Perth's rail system great, for instance at many stations the platform sits level with the trains meaning passengers with wheelchairs can simply board the train unassisted with minimal gap between the train and the platform. Perhaps what makes the public transport network a success is that it feels like a truly integrated and connected transport network; with train and bus services working together to maximize public transport coverage. Building a rail line on a freeway reserve isn't good for walkability with trains stations having small walk-up catchment, but despite this the Joonadlup and Manurah lines attract good patronage partly by having effective feeder buses that transfer passengers on and off the rail network. Even in the outer suburbs it's not uncommon to have buses running every 20 minutes, 15 minutes, or in some cases; every 10 minutes during peak times. This is perhaps in contrast to some North American cities that build new rail lines and simply rely on park & ride to get passengers onto trains.

The benefit is wider than that though as it allows the longer distance Armadale trains to run express, improving journey times.* Agree on comments re capacity. A disadvantage of the airport line is that peak trains on related lines will only be every 12 (not every 10 min). This has a major knock on effect to the bus network. Currently peak buses are every 10 min (main routes) with even local routes every 20 min. However 12 min train frequency will cause many bus routes to be only every 24 min in peak - a poorer service that's not clockface or memory. This is documented in the released plans for the airport area bus network. The trade-off is that stations like Bayswater will have amazing service.* Perth has integrated train/bus multimodal fares. Therefore whether CBD transport is free or not doesn't affect train usage or cost for commuters. Perth was one of the first Aust cities to do integrated fares (in the 1970s along with Adelaide). * There have been a few interesting schemes. Eg the promises for MAX Light Rail that came to nothing about 10 years ago by the Barnett government.* Perth doesn't get enough credit for its train frequency. With its 15 min off-peak 7 day service it is more consistently better than any Australian city apart from Sydney. Very roughly Perth has double Brisbane's train frequency on half the number of lines and half the stations. Yet its rail patronage exceeds Brisbane's. Perth has done a lot with a little due to working its trains hard 7 days and better integrating with buses. Neither are done by lazy and disjointed Brisbane. It's slow but Perth has gradually extended its 15 min service over more of the day including Sunday morning and early evenings (at times where a 30 min frequency is common in all other Australian cities outside Sydney). * Perth also needs credit for its bus network reform. There's still some complex routes and 120 min weekend headways but it's vastly better than in the '90s. There is a frequent orbital route. 900-series routes have tram-like operating hours and frequencies including 15 min maximum waits on Sundays. Government hasn't put a lot of money into increased bus services in recent years but the bus planners there know what they are doing and have been able to increase the number of all day frequent routes. The network is far less radial than the less versatile networks of Adelaide and Brisbane. Rail and bus are planned very closely there, unlike other cities (notably Brisbane) where there isn't much coordination. This has enabled buses to feed rather than duplicate trains with higher frequencies possible in the suburbs. * Passenger information is also quite good. Perth often has multimode network maps at stations. Something that cities like Melbourne could learn from. * There is a feeling there that there's a competent transit authority when travelling the network. You don't get that feeling in some other cities. To summarise Perth has better transit than you might expect from its urban form. Whereas there some other cities (especially with older urban patterns) that are better than their transit.", "extra_info": "" }, { "sentence": "An excellent clip Reece. Nailed all the key features really well. Have only visited Perth the once, but found the transport system impressive and easy to navigate. It all helps to have massive income from pay-dirt in WA. Which is probably why Adelaide (about 1.5 million) has still some way to go. Brisbane is also not a bad system, with a similar look apart from the surfeit of median running. Melbourne's trams are fairly awesome, but I always find their rail network a bit bewildering. Of all states Victoria has the geography and population to suit regional rail (by that I mean country / intra-state services) but is yet to fully exploit it. Sydney is probably the most interesting in that it is increasingly not just serving one city, but a conurbation of six and uses a wider variety of modes (suburban rail, inter-urban rail, metro, light rail, ferries, bus-ways, metro-bus and local bus services).

Branching from the Ellenbrook Line near Malaga. Some ideas for connecting this East Wanneroo Line to Perth, is to quad-track between Perth and Bayswater station (like you said), or dig a parallel tunnel about 2km to the north, that goes to Morley and Edith Cowan University. But both of these result in the East Wanneroo Line bypassing all of the existing suburbs such as Mirrabooka and Alexander Heights.We have been advocating for the East Wanneroo Line to instead use a combination of tunnel and elevated rail (which we know you love), that runs through the middle of Perth's northern suburbs and then 'through-runs' to the Armadale Line.

Brisbane feels hot for about 6 months of the year. It is easier to cool off in Perth. Perth is much easier to get around in; people spend far less time on a commute - there is also an excellent public transport (buses, trains) system tied in closely to the highway and freeway system. I have lived for many years in both cities. As far as beaches go there is just no comparison and you are only a max of 30 minutes away from a beach anywhere in Perth. House prices are only very high in both cities if you have a desperate need to live near to the CBD's and are very reasonable if you live 30-40 minutes drive away from work. The houses are much \"prettier\" in Brisbane, but as the lady says, they are far more expensive in Brissy. I think Brisbane is more suited to young couples who don't have children. Perth is extremely child friendly and there's much less stress on family life. The biggest downside to Perth is the feeling that you are two-dimensionally trapped between the hills and the sea. However, you just have to drive a couple of hours either north or south and you are met with the most incredible expanse of Australian nature. Perth is also amazingly close to Asia. 4 hours gets you to Singapore and about 3 hours to Bali. As you can see from some of the comments there is a fair bit of prejudice from eastern state people towards people from Perth. Some of this may originate in WA's attempt to secede from Australia in I think the 1930's (the only reason this did not happen was because the British government just ignored the referendum result). Perhaps as a consequence of this \"attitude\" I think Perth and WA people have great resilience and independence in how they approach the idea of what it means to be an Australian. I personally couldn't give two stuffs for any of that childish parochialism. WA is about 1/3 of the landmass of Australia (which is the same size as the contiguous USA) with only about 2.5 million people.

It would be correct to say I'm prejudiced when it comes to a choice, but it would also be correct to say that I feel justified in my reasoning when promoting Perth as the premier city of the two for a whole raft of reasons. It is telling that when deciding to raise a family my first thoughts was to return to Perth as the preferred option for child rearing. For a start, while the climate may entertain similar temperatures, you get NOTHING like the humidity of Brisbane in Perth. You also don't get hail the size of golf balls. I once saw a 5 min hail storm do over $3 million damage to an airfield in Brisbane. You can swim in the waters off Perth without worrying about jellyfish that can kill. Sharks, yes, but they occur in both areas. Nor do we have a Fraser Island with dingoes running rampant. The Quokkas may give you a cheeky grin though... There is way more to Perth than beaches and pretty scenery; if you think otherwise then you really haven't bothered to look. In the main I have found Perth people to be more generous of heart than Brisbanites. Evidence of this, for example, is the longest running Telethon on television when compared to ..... literally anywhere else on earth!

At the moment it costs around $1000 for a return plane trip out of the state. Including going to the eastern cities. Bali I think is cheaper.
