We’re removing the Maddox Road level crossing by building a rail bridge over the road, improving safety, and reducing congestion.
We'll close the nearby level crossing at Champion Road and build a new link road to keep vehicles moving between Maddox Road and Champion Road, improving safety, and cutting travel times, especially during peak periods.
Champion Road will be closed when the Maddox Road level crossing is removed in 2026.
We're holding in-person information sessions about the Newport and Spotswood projects in October, following our online sessions in August. Come along to speak with the project team and learn more about these projects.
Sessions will be held on:
- Saturday 21 October, 10am to 1pm
- Saturday 28 October, 10am to 1pm
- Thursday 2 November, 5pm to 8pm
All sessions will be held in the Newport Community Hub at 13-15 Masons Street, Newport.
There will be three 45-minute sessions each day. Book your spot via TryBooking.
