Merinda Park railway station is a commuter railway station on the Cranbourne line, which is part of the Melbourne railway network. It serves the eastern suburb of Cranbourne North, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Merinda Park station is a ground level unstaffed station, featuring two side platforms. It opened on 24 March 1995, with the current station provided in 2022.[4]
In December 2019, the Level Crossing Removal Project announced that the station would be completely rebuilt as part of the Cranbourne line duplication.[10] A second platform was added, and the main entrance moved to a more central location. On 18 March 2021, part of the new station opened,[11] with the remainder completed by 13 February 2022.[12] The duplication allowed an improved timetable for the Cranbourne line, with services operating roughly every 10 minutes during the morning peak.[12]
