State Library Station will provide access to some of Melbourne’s most popular spots: State Library of Victoria, RMIT University and Queen Victoria Market.

The station, under Swanston Street between Franklin and La Trobe streets, will become a northern gateway to the city, with the surrounding area transformed to become greener and more pedestrian-friendly.

An underground walkway will connect State Library and Melbourne Central stations so people can easily transfer between Metro Tunnel and City Loop services without having to pass through ticketing gates.

Two entrances close to tram stops on Swanston and La Trobe streets will allow for an easy interchange between trains and trams.

The station’s landmark main entrance forms a 20m-high "portico", reflecting the scale and form of the iconic State Library building opposite.
