Station overview
Facilities
Springvale is located at the eastern end of the Springvale Road level crossing, with station access from Springvale, Lightwood and Sandown Roads.
The station consists of two side platforms; Platform 1 has a large weatherboard building housing an enclosed waiting area, ticket facilities and toilets, while platform 2 has a smaller weatherboard building. Myki ticket vending machines are located inside the waiting room on platform 1, and at the entrance to platform 2.
A third rail line was to have been built connecting the station with Dandenong and Caulfield railway stations as part of the $1 billion Dandenong railway line triplication project. This project was quietly abandoned, in favour of the Victorian Transport Plan. Work on the Springvale-Caulfield section was due to begin by 2011 and on the Springvale-Dandenong section between 2011 and 2016.
