History

[edit]

Seaford station opened on 23 February 2014 as part of the extension of the line from Noarlunga Centre.[2][3] The line between Seaford Road and Griffiths Drive follows a similar alignment to the former Willunga railway line, and Seaford station is located approximately 300m from the site of the former Moana railway station, which is now housing.[4]

The station is located between Griffiths Drive and Lynton Terrace and has two side platforms connected by an overhead walkway. It also functions as a bus interchange for the majority of bus services in this area, as well as providing a park & ride facility for approximately 450 vehicles and a kiss & ride area.
