Gippsland Line Upgrade

The Gippsland Line Upgrade will deliver more frequent and reliable train services to the growing communities of Gippsland and will create 500 jobs in the region.

The Gippsland Line Upgrade will enable much-needed extra off-peak services such as track duplication, a crossing loop extension and second platforms at stations that will provide more opportunities for trains to pass each other.

Complete: Avon River Bridge

The Gippsland Line Upgrade has already delivered benefits, with level crossing upgrades allowing modern VLocity trains to run to Bairnsdale for the first time.

Construction of a new rail bridge over the Avon River now allows trains to travel at up to 90km/h, no longer needing to slow to 10km/h in this section.
