[edit] History

The station was built over the period 1990-1992 for the original opening of the Joondalup Line. Immediately north of the station is a siding for trains to terminate. Even though the siding is in the middle of the Mitchell Freeway with no pedestrian access, Transperth were forced to fence the area in 2005 due to repeated graffiti attacks while trains were briefly in the siding.
