Investing in the City of Bayswater The City of Bayswater activity centre network contains Morley City Centre - a Strategic Metropolitan Centre, as well as a number of other important district and local centres including Bayswater, Maylands and Noranda.
The centre network is closely linked by multiple transport routes and links to several major activity centres, including East Perth, Northbridge and Perth, Midland and Perth Airport. These links are critical to the overall contribution to population growth, employment and self-sufficiency, as well as attracting quality investment and supporting business growth within the City.

Bayswater Town Centre is located approximately eight kilometres from the Perth CBD, on Railway Parade and Whatley Crescent. The structure of the centre is similar to Maylands, with a main street extending south from the train station along King William Street, and various commercial premises within a 400 metre walkable catchment of the town centre. A school and other community land uses are also located within the walkable area. Its focus is primarily food and convenience retail, with some light industrial uses.
The City has prepared a Structure Plan for the Bayswater Town Centre to provide a framework for the development and revitalisation of the town centre into a mixed use centre that includes the Bayswater Train Station, its associated retail areas and residential frame. It is intended that appropriately located increased residential densities within the Town Centre will contribute to the walkable catchment of local shops and the train station, thereby reducing car reliance and enhancing the vitality of local businesses.
Further information on Bayswater Town Centre is available on the City's engagement page which can be found at the bottom of this page.
Maylands is located along the Midland-Perth railway line, less than five kilometres from the Perth CBD. The centre has developed as a retail and entertainment-based main street, running south from Maylands train station to Guildford Road. Other commercial and community uses are located around the main street.
Maylands is currently functioning as a relatively mature district centre. It has a reasonable level of diversity, covering retail, arts, dining, public administration, health care and education, in fitting with its role as a district centre. With its proximity to the CBD and train access, Maylands has the potential to build on its current success to become a high amenity and activated inner urban centre with employment, entertainment, shopping and recreational opportunities along with everyday services.

The Morley Activity Centre is located in the suburb of Morley, and approximately eight kilometres north of the Perth CBD. The centre is well connected to the CBD by car and bus along Beaufort Street. From elsewhere in the region, the centre is accessible via several major arterial roads including Morley Drive, Tonkin Highway and Guildford Road. Perth Airport is located close by, giving access to the resource economy of the northwest and national and international business, and Ashfield Industrial Precinct is located two kilometres to the East.
The development of the Morley Activity Centre is a priority for the City, as outlined in its strategic documents including the Strategic Community Plan, City’s Local Housing Strategy and the Morley Activity Centre Plan (MACP). The Activity Centre Plan establishes a vision for Morley to become a vibrant place to visit, a dynamic marketplace to do business, and home to a diverse and connected community.
