Woburn Station: Shelter Upgrades
Description
The Woburn Station building is being upgraded with a larger waiting area and more seating. This upgrade will result in a more attractive space, while still maintaining the historical character where possible. We appreciate your patience during this time.
Updates
The Woburn Station upgrade remains on track to deliver important improvements for passengers, with a slightly revised completion date. Originally planned for completion in February 2026, the project is now expected to be finished late March 2026.
The updated timeline reflects several factors, including findings from recent geotechnical investigations, the shop drawing review process, and KiwiRail’s concurrent rerailing work which had a compounding effect on the schedule.
The Woburn Station upgrade work begins on 15 September and lasts until Feb 2026. The station building will be closed during construction, but a temporary shelter is available 20m north of the building for passengers to use. Train services continue as normal.
Benefits
This upgrade will allow more people to wait comfortably for the train.
