6 October 2025

We’re removing the level crossings at Old Calder Highway and Watsons Road, Diggers Rest, improving local safety, and making the Sunbury Line level crossing-free in 2025.

In mid October we will work overnight to repair small sections of asphalt on Golden Way.

What we’re doing

We’ll be completing the following works at the roundabouts at either end of Golden Way, and at the western car park exit:

  • Removing some of the existing road surface
  • Installing new asphalt

When we’ll work

These works will take place from 7pm, Sunday 19 October to 5am, Monday 20 October. We’ll be working at night to minimise impacts to traffic.

We’ll make every effort to complete works on schedule, however they are weather-dependent and dates subject to change.

What to expect

You may notice low to moderate levels of noise, as well as dust and vibration. There will be some lighting in place to safely facilitate works.
