Aubin Grove railway station (officially Aubin Grove Station) is a commuter railway station serving Atwell, Aubin Grove, Hammond Park and Success, which are suburbs of Perth, Western Australia. It is on the Mandurah line, part of the Transperth network, located immediately north of Russell Road in the median of the Kwinana Freeway. It has a singular island platform, which is linked to either side of the freeway by a pedestrian overpass. The journey to Perth railway station is 23.8 km and takes 21 minutes. Construction of the station was promised by both major political parties ahead of the 2013 Western Australian state election. A tender was released for the station's construction in July 2014, with a projected cost of $80 million for the whole project, including the purchase of two Transperth B-series trains. The design contract was awarded in February 2015 to a joint venture between Coniglio Ainsworth Architects and M. P. S. Architects. The scope of the project was broadened in April 2015 to include the widening of the Russell Road bridge over the freeway. Construction on the station began in March 2016, and it was opened on 23 April 2017.
