Location

Arden railway station is an underground railway station operated by Metro Trains Melbourne on the Sunbury line, which is part of the Melbourne rail network. It serves the inner north-western Melbourne suburb of North Melbourne in Victoria, Australia.

Opened as part of the Metro Tunnel project, Arden is an underground premium station, featuring an island platform with two platforms. Major construction commenced in April 2018 and completed in January 2024. The station was constructed using the cut-and-cover method. The station opened on 30 November 2025, along with the rest of the Metro Tunnel.

The station sits in a major inner-city urban renewal area for Melbourne, and will anchor the new high-density suburb of Arden. A structure plan for the former industrial area was gazetted in 2022.
