Murrumbeena has been transformed overnight, with the first beam placed over Murrumbeena Road.
Used by 15,000 vehicles a day, Murrumbeena Road has boom gates closed for up to 75 minutes in the 2-hour morning peak.
This is a major project milestone, bringing us one step closer to removing the dangerous and congested level crossing as part of the Caulfield to Dandenong Level Crossing Removal Project.
We've also released the finalised design for Hughesdale Station.
The station will be rebuilt as an elevated railway station on the west side of Poath Road to create convenient access to shops and connections to public transport.
The final design takes into account feedback from the community.
Key changes made to the preliminary design include a reduction in the height of the station canopy, improved layout of the station precinct at ground level and improved lighting and security features.
