Petah Tikva-Kiryat Aryeh railway station

The Petah Tikva-Kiryat Aryeh railway station is a suburban passenger railway station in Israel, operated by Israel Railways. It is located in the northern Kiryat Aryeh business area and industrial zone of Petah Tikva, and mainly serves commuters from other towns who work in Petah Tikva. The station is adjacent to HaMoshava Stadium. It consists of a passenger hall and two side platforms serving two tracks on the Yarkon railway. Space exists to allow converting the far side platform to an island platform, allowing the station to serve a total of three tracks in the future.
