As part of the electrification of the line in the early 1980s, new station buildings were built, the western relief line and Platform 3 removed, and the 1939 built signal box on Platform 1 that used to control movements to the Belmont line decommissioned on 4 December 1983. Until December 1991, the Belmont line diverged to the south-east of the station.
The station was upgraded with new lifts and footbridge with work completed by late 2017.
In 2019, Platform 1 was extended to accommodate 10-cars.
