Platforms and services

Minnamurra station has a side platform with near street level access, connected by a ramp to the streetside entrance. The ramp has an insufficiently shallow gradient to qualify it for Easy Access.

The platform includes a shelter, which has replaced a former red brick shelter that was once at the station. The station is never supervised and usually has one train an hour, increasing to two an hour during peak.
