Williams Landing railway station

Williams Landing railway station is located on the Werribee line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the western Melbourne suburb of Williams Landing opening on 28 April 2013. The Western standard gauge line passes to the north of Platform 1. Construction required the slewing of the existing southern track to make room for the new platform.

History
In 2008 the State Government announced the station in the Victorian Transport Plan. Construction was originally intended to commence during 2010, but eventually started in September 2011, with the station opened on 28 April 2013.

The cost of the station in 2011 was budgeted at $86 million for the station and $24 million for associated road works including a bridge over the line. The cost was criticised by the Public Transport Users Association of Victoria as too high.
