We're undertaking signalling works along the Werribee Line in August.

In August 2025, we’ll work around the clock along the Werribee Line to complete signalling and track works while trains are not running.

Buses will replace trains on sections of the Werribee and Williamstown lines from 8.30pm Friday 8 August to last service Sunday 17 August.

What we’re doing

At and around the Browns Road/Galvin Road level crossing, we’ll:

• Undertake track work in the rail corridor near the level crossing
• test and complete signalling works along the Werribee Line
• utilise land parcels to the east and west of the level crossing for materials storage during the works.

When we’ll work

We will work through the day and night at certain times at and around the Browns Road/Galvin Road level crossing.

• From 8.30pm, Friday 8 August to Monday 11 August, there will be 24/7 track works at the level crossing and along the adjacent rail corridor
• From 8.30pm, Friday 8 August to Sunday 17 August there will be signalling works taking place along the Werribee Line.

What to expect

While we work, you can expect:

• Increased activity as worker vehicles enter and exit the area
• specialised rail equipment on the tracks, and other machinery
• lighting towers
• moderate noise during periods of track works as the works crew undertake rail cutting and welding.
