6 March 2025
We’re making the Pakenham Line level crossing free by 2025, removing 22 dangerous and congested level crossings.
What we’re doing
In March, we’ll continue works north and south of the rail line to complete bridge and roundabout asphalting, line marking, landscaping and lighting works. We’ll also demobilise and relocate our site sheds within the station car park.
Standard work hours will be 7am to 7pm, Monday to Sunday.
At times, we’ll need to work 24/7 to complete these works. Where possible, disruptive works will be scheduled for earlier in the day to minimise impacts to locals. Impacted residents will be notified prior to works commencing.
