Te Waihorotiu railway station, also known as Aotea Station, is an underground railway station under construction in Auckland, New Zealand. It is due to open in late 2026 as part of the City Rail Link project.[2] [3] It is expected to become the busiest rail station in New Zealand when opened, and will serve the Aotea Centre, Auckland Town Hall and SkyCity Auckland.[4]
Te Waihorotiu Station will be located 15 metres underground, running under Albert Street, between Wellesley Street and Victoria Street. There will be two entrances on Victoria Street West (on either side of Albert Street), and one entrance on Wellesley Street West on the Mayoral Drive corner (next to The Civic Theatre).[5] Construction commenced in September 2019.[6] [7]
