The level crossing at Aviation Road, Laverton was removed by moving the road onto a new bridge over the rail line, connecting Maher Road to Aviation Road and Triholm Avenue.
The road bridge features a pedestrian walkway and dedicated bike lanes, and a new road connection that maintains access to the nearby Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) base.
Aircraft Station platforms are now accessible from north and south of the rail line via the new underpass, ramps and stairs.
Planned timeline
The Aviation Road level crossing was removed in 2019.
The second phase of the project began in 2021, and the new pedestrian and cyclist underpass and station forecourts at Aircraft Station opened in February 2022
In March 2022, 100 new and upgraded car parks were delivered at Aircraft Station as part of the Car Parks for Commuters Program.
