Varsity Lakes railway station is a proposed railway station at Varsity Lakes on the Gold Coast Line of South East Queensland, Australia. The rail extension to Varsity Lakes is the first step in the progressive extension of the Gold Coast line to the Gold Coast Airport and Coolangatta.
Construction work on the 4.1 kilometre line extension from Robina railway station commenced in late July 2007 with an expected cost of $324.4 million, with 300 car park spaces, six bus bays, ten taxi bays and a drop-off area planned as part of the development. Work is expected to be completed by 2010. [http://statements.cabinet.qld.gov.au/MMS/StatementDisplaySingle.aspx?id=52854 accessed 18 July 2007]
