About the Perth – Midland Principal Shared Path
The Perth – Midland Principal Shared Path (PSP) is a high-quality urban dual use pathway which runs parallel to the Midland railway line through Perth’s eastern suburbs. At 17km in length, the path can be cycled in approximately 1 hour, or walked in approximately 4 hours.
Starting at the intersection of William Street Mall and Roe Street, the path heads east along Roe Street. It continues past Perth Train Station and then follows the railway line to McIver and Claisebrook. At Claisebrook, the path heads up a ramp and then turns left onto the Claisebrook station overpass. Descending from the overpass, the path follows the Graham Farmer Freeway for approximately 450m. It then turns northeast and runs along the southern side of the railway line to East Perth.
East Perth station was formerly the East Perth Locomotive Depot. In addition to Midland passenger services, it is also the departure point for Indian Pacific and Prospector trains.
Leaving East Perth, the PSP continues on the southern side of the Midland rail line. It crosses Mount Lawley subway, then continues past Mount Lawley station and Maylands station. The old Maylands Station House (circa 1899) was preserved when the station was redeveloped in 2001. There is a vibrant shopping and café precinct in the vicinity.
