We’re removing the level crossings at McGregor Road, Main Street and Racecourse Road by building a 2.5km rail bridge over the roads.
By raising the rail line, we're creating more than 6 MCGs worth of new open space for locals to enjoy.
We’re hosting 2 online workshops to hear from the community what they’d like to see in this new open space which will include a combination of:
- community recreation facilities
- walking and cycling paths
- landscaped areas.
At each session you can:
- share your feedback on the new open space
- share your ideas on what you think we should include or consider in its design
- speak with our project team.
You’re invited to join us on Wednesday 27 October and Thursday 28 October for our interactive online workshops – scroll down for session times and how to register.
