The station here was opened in 1996 some distance south of the original Yarm station which closed in 1960. No doubt the expectation was that most passengers would arrive by car, and a site was chosen where land was available to provide a sizeable car park (which is provided by the local authority, not the station operator). A walking route to the town centre (over a mile away) is signposted passing mainly through a housing estate and the nearest bus stop is on Davenport Road.
