History
The station was originally constructed, along with five others, in 1929 on the route of the Westfield Deviation, which was being built to divert the Auckland–Westfield section of the North Island Main Trunk line (NIMT) via a flatter, faster eastern route to link up with the original NIMT tracks at Westfield Junction.[1]
The station was temporarily closed between March 2023 and January 2024 due to Stage 2 of the Rail Network Rebuild. The Eastern Line was temporarily closed between Ōtāhuhu and Britomart for major track renewal work and to prepare the Eastern Line for the opening of the City Rail Link.[2]
As part of the Level Crossing Removal Programme, a pedestrian bridge and 2 lifts have been proposed for the station and is expected to start construction in October 2025.[3]
