The new $9.2 million Victoria Park Station was opened on August 2, 2008.
The station was built 230m south of the previous facility, in a similar ‘island platform’ style with access via a bridge, stairs, a lift and ramps.
Features of the new station include:
- A station building - a roof structure over the platform, customer service booth, communications room, cleaner’s room and stairs to a footbridge;
- A roofed footbridge linking Rutland and Kitchener Avenues to the station entry structures, as well as access ramps, stairs and a lift between the footbridge and platform;
- Passenger drop-off locations, vehicle circulation areas and footpath access; and
- Moving the audible pedestrian crossing on Kitchener Street to immediately north of Duncan Street.
Following the opening of the new station, the previous Victoria Park Station was decommissioned and removed.
