Was originally only a rail bridge for suburban non electric passenger single track services prior to the 1990s. Present day bridge now has the dual carriageway Graeme Farmer Freeway and the electrified dual track Perth-Armadale/Thornlie suburban commuter train (). "The original Bunbury Bridge (right) was a single line timber railway bridge which took the railway line across the Swan River at East Perth near where Claise Brook enters the river. It was built as part of the Armadale line, which was opened to traffic on 2nd May 1889. The original stations were Perth, Kelmscott and Armadale. Cannington and Welshpool opened later in 1897 and 1898 respectively. The bridge was named Bunbury Bridge because the line was to be extended to Bunbury in the state's south-west, which occurred in 1891. The present double track concrete structure called the Goongoonup Bridge was constructed and brought into operation in September 1991 when Perth's suburban railway lines were electrified. It replaced its aging predecessor, ending the days of 'crossing delays' forever. The latter was demolished at the beginning of 1996."
