In 2008, the Public Transport Authority completed a $10.8 million upgrade of the station.
The station was closed on 20 November 2023 for an 18 month shutdown to facilitate works on the Victoria Park-Canning Level Crossing Removal and Byford Rail Extension projects. During this time the station received a number of upgrades, and saw the removal of the congested nearby level crossing at Denny Avenue and construction of a replacement underpass at Davis Road. This project also saw the refurbishment of the public space on the Albany Highway side of the station, with a new plaza constructed and the original Station Master's house restored. The station reopened on 12 October 2025 with the extension to Byford.
