Rhodesfield Station is an elevated station that is linked with the adjacent PRASA metro station. The station provides links to Pretoria, Johannesburg CBD, and the Sandton CBD.
The Rhodesfield station maintains the overall identity of the Gautrain system incorporating white structural tree elements and green glass. Similarly, energy efficient design is used in both the heating and cooling components of the building. The character of the site influenced the architectural design, which was restricted in terms of the available space for tracks and the geometry of the site. As a result, unusual elevations were required for the platform and bridges of the station.
