Westfield Train Station is located on the Eastern and Southern Lines of the Auckland Railway Network. It is near Westfield Junction, which is the junction of the Eastern and Southern Lines. It has an Island platform layout and can be reached from a pedestrian overbridge at the end of Portage Road.

[edit] Patronage

This station has one of the lowest patronage of any station on the Auckland network. It survives only because it is where train staff swap shifts. If it was not for this, this station would have been closed.[citation needed] The shelter structure is in very poor condition and provides little protection from the driving wind and rain which comes off the Manukau Harbour.
