We present four new transit observations of the exoplanet WASP-28b observed between 2011 August and 2013 October. Employing another 11 transits available in the literature we compute new ephemeris and redetermine the physical parameters of the star and the exoplanet. Considering 3 yr of observations, we find no periodic transit timing variations (TTVs) or long-term variations of the inclination of the orbit, i, or the depth of the transit, k, that could be attributable to the presence of another planetary-mass body in the system. We also study the relations between i and k with different factors that characterize the light curves. The fits suggest a possible weak correlation between k with the red noise factor, β, and the photometric noise rate, PNR, and a weak anticorrelation between i and PNR, although more points are needed to confirm these trends. Finally, the kinematic study suggests that WASP-28 is a thin-disc star.
