Springvale railway station is located on the Cranbourne and Pakenham lines in Victoria, Australia. It serves the south-eastern Melbourne suburb of Springvale opening on 1 September 1880 as Spring Vale, being renamed Springvale in February 1972.[1]
In 1975 the signal box was provided with a new relay interlocking system.[2] It was upgraded to a Premium station on 7 June 1996.[3]
The remnant of a former branch line which went to Spring Vale Cemetery station was located at the northern end of the station. In October 2002 it was booked out of use, and the associated points, signals, crossover, and overhead wiring were removed in August 2008.[4]
In mid-2013, construction commenced on a grade separation project to eliminate the Springvale Road level crossing immediately north of the station. As part of this project, a new station was constructed below street level, opening on 22 April 2014.[5][6][7]
