Tarneit railway station is a regional railway station on the Deer Park-West Werribee line, part of the Victorian railway network. It serves the western suburb of Tarneit, in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Tarneit station is a ground level premium station, featuring two side platforms. It opened on 14 June 2015.[1]
Forming part of the Regional Rail Link project,[2] [3] the station was officially opened by the Victorian Premier, Daniel Andrews, and the Commonwealth Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development, Warren Truss, with services commencing on 21 June 2015.[4] It quickly became the second-busiest station on the V/Line network after Southern Cross.[5]
Part of the southern car park at the station permanently closed in May 2023 to make way for the construction of a new bus interchange. Both the northern and southern car parks have been expanded, with the additional spaces in the northern car park opening in October 2022.[6] [7] The new bus interchange opened on 19 November 2023.[8]
Under the Western Rail Plan, announced by the Andrews government in 2018, the station will eventually become part of the metropolitan railway network.[9]
Tarneit has two side platforms. It is served by V/Line Geelong line trains and some Warrnambool line trains.[10] [11]
