Ballan Station has been upgraded as part of the Ballarat Line Upgrade.

The upgraded station is more accessible and features improved amenities, to cater to Ballan’s growing population.

Ballan Station passengers now benefit from 100 extra services per week as part of a timetable change that started Sunday 31 January 2021. This was made possible by the Ballarat Line Upgrade.
