On 6 May a tender was issued for construction works on the new Erindale Bus Station, Tenders having been called in October 2014, closing in November, but a suitable bid was not received. The two existing stops and passenger facilities on Comrie Street in Erindale will be upgraded to major stop standards, including new 12 m shelters. Erindale Bus Station will provide increased space for buses, bike racks, comfortable seating sheltered from the elements and real time information. Construction work will involve the installation of a new bus shelter on the west side of the Erindale Shopping Centre and the replacement of the bus stop adjacent to the side of the shops. The new arrangements will be able to accommodate four buses on each side. Seven routes currently service Erindale Centre and the facility will commence the shopping centre's transformation into a new transport hub, better connecting it to other town centres. It will be compatible with plans for future transport improvements including the redirection of additional rapid routes through Erindale.
