DELAND, Fla. – Ground was broken Monday for a new SunRail commuter station in Deland. The station is part of SunRail’s Phase 2 Northern Expansion. Phase 2 will add 12.2 miles to the SunRail corridor, expanding service from the DeBary SunRail Station to the new DeLand Station, with a projected opening in the summer of 2024.
The aesthetic appearance of the new station will align with nearby historic DeLand, featuring a center platform design and bring additional enhancements including six miles of double track for increased capacity. The expansion to DeLand marks SunRail’s 17th station. The current system spans 49 miles and serves 16 stations connecting Volusia, Seminole, Orange, and Osceola counties and the city of Orlando. The expansion will cost $42.8 million.
