The station will include a bus interchange with 14 weather-protected stands with its flexible design meaning buses can drop passengers either internally to the bus station or externally near commercial development. The station also will hold approximately 1000 parking bays, with a dedicated passenger drop-off area.
The station will be situated near Marmion Avenue and will be accessed off the future Toreopango Avenue, as part of the Yanchep City Centre development developed by the Yanchep Beach Joint Venture. Approximately 11,032 daily boardings are predicted at Yanchep railway station in 2031. The station will initially be built with 1 platform, but with capacity to expand to 3 platforms later. Services to Perth will be provided by Transperth Trains.
