It is located at the western edge of the city of Hadera, at the southern end of Dereh HaRakevet (Hebrew: דרך הרכבת, The Train Road).

As part of this project, the road infrastructure around the station will be significantly upgraded and Hadera West will serve as the only intermediate stop on a new high-speed train between Haifa and Tel Aviv which will travel at speeds of up to 250 km/h.

Further to the west there are several tracks in the station's freight terminal as well as stacked container and cargo storage area.

Timetable highlights: Platform numbers increase in an East-to-West direction Hadera Ma'arav (West) station is accessible mainly by private cars since it is situated in a fairly remote location approximately 2 km from the city's center.

It is located off the main road which connects central Hadera with the Coastal Highway and the Giv'at Olga neighborhood to the west.

Additional buses stop on the road leading from Hadera to the Coastal Highway, at a point approximately a 700m walk northeast of the station entrance.
