History

Announced as part of the Victorian Transport Plan in 2008,[6][7] the project was re-announced in the 2010-11 state budget.[8]

On 9 October 2010, construction of the station officially commenced, when the then Minister for Public Transport, Martin Pakula, turned the first sod.[9] Completion was expected in 2011 but, due to the under-budgeting of the electricity connection to the station, the project stalled.[10][11]
