[3] On 2 January 2013, the station was closed again with the whole Seaford line, to allow for its electrification and extension, with trains being replaced by bus services.
In October and November 2019 the Seaford bound platform at Marino Rocks station underwent extensive landscaping initiated by the Department for Infrastructure and Transport which increased visibility, safety and security of the station from the adjacent streets, as well as improving its appearance.
When visitors are exploring the area, official Adelaide Metro signage can be found with directions back to Marino Rocks train station e.g. from the Conservation Park, Coast to Vines trail and Marino Rocks beach etc.
Artwork featured local attractions and was hung to be highly visible to commuters on the train.
Marino Rocks station art gallery has since grown to over 20 pieces of artwork created by local artists, children and their families.
