Murdoch Park 'n' Ride was a Transperth bus station located in Murdoch, Western Australia. It opened on 14 December 1994 with parking for 583 cars.[1][2][3]

On 31 January 2007 it closed to facilitate the construction of Murdoch railway station, which incorporated a bus facility on a bridge structure extending over the Kwinana Freeway carriageways and train station.[4] The Park & Ride no longer exists as a bus station, but now operates as a fully integrated bus/train interchange. The buses now leave from the purpose-built bus way bridge that runs parallel to the South Street overpass.
