We’re making the Sunbury Line level crossing free in 2025, a year ahead of schedule, removing 8 dangerous and congested level crossings to improve safety, reduce congestion and run more trains, more often.

What we’re doing

In January, we’ll continue to:

  • construct the foundations for the new road bridge and shared use path
  • relocate and install essential services, including drainage and public lighting
  • asphalt sections of the new Calder Park Drive road bridge
  • install concrete road barriers, kerb and guardrail along the new road bridge.

What to expect

  • To safely relocate existing services including public lighting, there will be a pedestrian detour on the corner of Calder Park Drive and Manchester Drive at times until late 2025.
  • Traffic management will be in place, including lane closures and reduced speed limits at times.
  • Increased construction noise, light and machinery in the area.
  • Out of hours work may be required at times. We will contact impacted properties ahead of works with more information.
  • Our general working hours are Monday to Friday, 7am to 6pm and Saturday 7am to 5pm.

End of year shut down period

There will be no construction activities during the holiday period. Construction works will end Friday 20 December 2024 and restart Tuesday 14 January 2025.

For the safety of the community, changed traffic conditions and speed reductions will remain in place during this time.

We’d also like to thank you for your patience during works in 2024.
