The map illustrates the development of the town of Bellingham between 1980 and 2019. Overall, there was a substantial increase in the size of Bellingham. Included in this were the development of the town’s residential areas and the establishment of a range of public services and infrastructure.

The first major phase of development began in 1990 with the establishment of a train line. Over the next decade, the town of Bellingham grew alongside the major road and around this train station. A school was built in this area in 1993 and a hospital close by in 2001.

Between 2010 and 2019, the second and largest phase of development occurred. This began with the building of a freeway in 2010. After this, Bellingham grew dramatically due to government assisted housing development alongside the freeway, railway line and major roads. Another addition to the town in this period was the construction of a sports stadium in 2012 nearby where the railway line intersects with the freeway.
