Rotherham Gateway Station is expected to be open by 2031 and will reintroduce mainline trains for the first time since the 1980s.
The station will be located at Parkgate and will have both rail and tram services.
An accompanying building would house the station facilities and a business centre.
Improvements to walking and cycling routes would also connect the station to the town centre via Effingham Street.
The business case for the station is in its final stages and an update was given to Rotherham Council earlier this week.
South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority later on this month and to the Department for Transport by May.
