It was a joint project between the Public Transport Authority (PTA) and Curtin University. The total budget was $15 million, with the PTA contributing $5 million, and Curtin University paying for the rest.[4][5] It is at the centre of a transit-oriented development featuring student accommodation and retail, currently under construction as of June 2021.[6]
