Cudgegong Road is a rapid transit terminal being built by the Northwest Rapid Transit (NRT) consortium at Cudgegong Road, Rouse Hill, in Sydney, Australia. The station is being built as part of Transport for New South Wales's Sydney Metro Northwest project, to serve future train services to Chatswood. The station is planned to eventually serve trains to the Sydney central business district, Bankstown and Hurstville as part of the government's 20-year Sydney's Rail Future strategy.

The station is named after a nearby road, which in turn is named for a central west NSW property owned by the suburb's namesake, local pastoralist and political figure Richard Rouse. Cudgegong Road Station could not be named 'Rouse Hill' as this name is used for a separate station to the east, at the Rouse Hill Town Centre. Blacktown City Council unsuccessfully proposed naming the surrounding area – and station – in honour of former Prime Minister of Australia Gough Whitlam, who died in 2014.

Though various forms of a rail line to Rouse Hill were proposed by the NSW Government between 1998 and 2010, these generally terminated at the Town Centre. A 2001 plan had the line continue north-west rather than west from Rouse Hill, with the next stop at Box Hill. Cudgegong Road only emerged as a station location in 2012, with the Government favouring a future corridor heading west from Rouse Hill towards the existing Schofields railway station and the future growth area of Marsden Park.
