New pedestrian and cycling path for Maidstone Street
Read more
We're removing the level crossing at Maidstone Street, Altona by building a road bridge over the Werribee Line.
Building a road bridge avoids impacts to important utilities and provides the best connections for this industrial area.
Removing this level crossing will reduce congestion for the 14,400 vehicles that use the crossing each day, with the boom gates currently down for more than 20% of the morning peak.
The Maidstone Street level crossing will be gone for good in 2027, and the Werribee Line will be level crossing free by 2030.
