Minister for Regional Transport and Roads Paul Toole said more than $3 million was invested in the upgrades, as part of the NSW Government's Transport Access Program.
"I am delighted that Goulburn Station is now compliant to current access standards, making it more accessible to all customers, including those with limited mobility," Mr Toole said.
"Customers can now utilise, upgraded accessible paths in and around the station forecourt, two new ambulant toilets and improved lighting and wayfinding."
Member for Goulburn Wendy Tuckerman said the government has also improved access to the station's accessible parking spaces, installed a new accessible kiss and ride bay, and upgraded the ramp and the station waiting room.
"As well as accessibility improvements, the station upgrade created over 40 jobs during planning and construction," Mrs Tuckerman said.
"I would like to thank the local community and our customers for their support while work was completed.
"It is exciting that we now have an upgraded station that will benefit all our customers."
