History
For many years this station's name was mis-spelt as Sturgess Road. The road was named after a local family living in the area in the 19th century called Sturges, but the incorrect spelling remained in use for many decades until it was corrected in the 1990s.
Services
Suburban train services are provided by Transdev Auckland on behalf of the Auckland Regional Transport Authority (ARTA).
