Autumn upgrades for better Shepparton Line journeys

Back to Newsfeed

Works to deliver more frequent and reliable train services to communities in the Goulburn Valley will progress in March and April.

These Shepparton Line Upgrade works will include rebuilding track through level crossings and improving bridges to make journeys smoother and more reliable.

New signalling infrastructure will also be installed along sections of track between Seymour and Nagambie, and between Murchison East and Toolamba.

The Shepparton Line Upgrade is modernising public transport throughout the region and will deliver nine return weekday services for Shepparton Line passengers when the project is complete.

Major upgrades to a 26 kilometre section of track took place late last year.

The project has already upgraded stations at Murchison East, Nagambie and Mooroopna, delivered extra services and enabled modern VLocity trains to operate on the line.

Level crossings in High Street, Seymour and Schoolhouse Lane, Tallarook, were upgraded with improved train detection technology in January – boosting safety.

Coaches will replace Shepparton Line trains for part or all the journey from Saturday 9 March to Sunday 14 April and Seymour Line trains from Saturday 9 March to Sunday 24 March.

This work has been coordinated with V/Line annual maintenance and upgrade works.
