We are delivering stage one of Melbourne Airport Rail with an investment of more than $4 billion by the Australian and Victorian governments to build the Sunshine Superhub, untangling Melbourne's most complex rail junction outside the CBD. The new superhub will create space for a rail line to the airport and future electrification of the Melton Line.

In preparation for major construction works on the Sunshine Superhub, a number of major underground utilities services in the rail corridor need to be relocated. As we prepare to carry out these relocation works, there will be some changes in the area.

On Monday 2 February 2026, the commuter car park at Albion Station will close until late 2026 to make way for underground drilling, service relocation and pipe storage. The station will remain open to passengers and 8 accessible car spaces in the station car park will remain available.

Alternative commuter parking will be available from Monday 2 February 2026 near Tottenham Station on Rupert Street, located to the east of the existing station commuter car park.

What we’re doing

From Monday 12 January 2026, we will prepare the alternative commuter car park near Tottenham Station by carrying out:

• electrical works for car park lighting
• signage installation
• minor pothole rectification works
• general tidy up of the area.

What to expect

• an increase in work crews, machinery and construction vehicles (including trucks) in the area
• a mobile caravan for worker facilities, including power generators
• medium levels of noise.
• we'll work Monday to Friday, 7am to 6pm. We may work Saturdays, 7am to 3pm if required.
