History

A station at Nicholson Road was first planned as part of the proposed Armadale line branch route of the Mandurah line. This station was ultimately not constructed as the final route was altered to a different alignment.
Construction of the station started in 2020, with the station opening on 8 June 2025.
At the 2021–22 State Budget, it was announced that the Thornlie–Cockburn link had been deferred by 12 months, as a result of Western Australia's skills shortage. This was alongside the deferment of 15 other state government infrastructure projects. The revised opening date was late 2024. In August 2022, it was announced that the Thornlie–Cockburn link had been delayed until 2025. In March 2025, it was announced that the station would open on 8 June 2025.
