Greenwood railway station is a railway station on the Transperth network. It is located on the Joondalup line, 17.8 kilometres from Perth station serving the suburb of Greenwood.

History

Originally proposed as the Hepburn station under the Northern Suburbs Transit System Masterplan in 1989 to coincide with the Hepburn Heights development. The master plan placed the station as a future station until demand of the railway and suburbs warranted the construction of the station.

After being promised a number of times but not delivered,[1][2] construction finally began in 2004 with the aim of reducing peak demand at the nearby Warwick and Whitfords stations, opening on 29 January 2005.[3][4][5]
