Eglinton Station will include a weather-protected bus interchange with 8 stands, approximately 400 parking bays which can be expanded to 1000, and 14 motorbike bays. The station will also contain 2 bike shelters and 10 U-rails.
The station will be situated south of Pipidinny Road and east of Marmion Avenue and will be accessed off a purpose-built street, as part of the Eglinton Estates development. The station will also be situated in a cutting with at least 50 percent coverage, similar to Joondalup station, and will be accessed via a station building at ground level. Approximately 4,792 daily boardings are predicted at Eglinton railway station in 2031. Services to Perth and Yanchep will be provided by Transperth Trains.
At the 2021–22 State Budget, it was announced that the Yanchep rail extension had been deferred by 12 months, as a result of Western Australia's skills shortage. This was alongside the deferment of 15 other state government infrastructure projects. The revised opening date is late 2023.[4][5][6]
Foundation works on the station began in December 2021.[7][8]
