Parking and pedestrian crossing changes
We’re removing 18 level crossings and building 12 new stations as part of a $3 billion upgrade of the Frankston line.
From Edithvale to Bonbeach we’re removing 5 dangerous level crossings, building 3 new stations, fixing local road networks and upgrading dangerous intersections.
As part of these works in Edithvale, there will be changes to parking and pedestrian crossings along Station Street and the Nepean Highway.
To make room for the upgraded Edithvale Road intersection and the new Edithvale Station, we will relocate parking spaces south along Station Street and Nepean Highway towards Northcliffe Road.
New pedestrian crossings over Station Street and the Nepean Highway will be added at Rae Avenue, Edithvale Road and Bapaume Avenue.
Project benefits
- Improved safety for pedestrians and cyclists with dedicated shared use paths and new pedestrian crossings
- Better all-abilities access and parking
- New kiss’n’ride pick-up and drop-off zones
- Parkiteer bike cage and more bike hoops
With more than 4km of new shared use path between Edithvale and Bonbeach and more bike facilities, we're improving connections to public transport, local shops and the beach.
