[3] There is one principal station building located on the concourse which serves as bike parking space and PSO facilities.

[7] The journey to Southern Cross railway station in central Melbourne is approximately 10.61 kilometres (6.59 mi) and takes 25 minutes.

[3] The signal box, commissioned in 1917, was decommissioned and restored into public open space as part of level crossing removal works in 2016.

[14][15] In 1986, manually controlled boom barriers replaced interlocked gates at the former Burke Road level crossing, which was located at the down end of the station.

[16] Also at this time, level crossing safety upgrades occurred, with power operated pedestrian gates provided.

[19] In 2011, Transport Minister Terry Mulder announced that the government began early planning works for the removal of the Burke Road level crossing, however, no commencement/conclusion date was released.

[17] In May 2014, the government announced a $524 million package to remove three level crossings across Melbourne, to be delivered by VicRoads.

[21] During 2015, construction began on the project with piling works and service relocations to create the rail trench.

Major construction ramped up with closures of the Glen Waverley line to facilitate further piling and excavation works.

[23] With works continuing throughout the rest of 2015, the level crossing was removed in early 2016 with the reopening of Burke Road and Gardiner station.

[20][24] The redevelopment of Gardiner Park included the construction of a new clubhouse, the installation of a fake grass playing field, and a new playground.

[25] Also built in conjunction with the removal works was an eleven storey high communication tower, aimed at improving identification of trains, and emergency management around the network.
