Sunbury Line now boom gate free
Read more
We've removed the level crossing at Calder Park Drive, Calder Park by building a road bridge over the rail line.
Removing this level crossing will improve traffic flow in the area, which means we can close the nearby level crossing at Holden Road.
More than 10,000 vehicles used these level crossings each day, facing delays of up to 26 minutes when 25 trains travelled through the crossings in the morning peak.
In the coming months, we will complete the Calder Park Drive bridge’s shared use path and landscaping works, planting more than 200 trees and 100,000 plants, shrubs and grasses throughout the area.
Planned timeline
The Calder Park Drive level crossing was removed in July 2025. The Holden Road boom gates will be gone for good in 2025.
Removing these level crossings will help make the Sunbury Line level crossing free in 2025.
