The SRL East station at Glen Waverley will be one of the best connected on the metropolitan network – connecting more people to the heart of this vibrant shopping and hospitality district.
It will provide a key transport link to the Glen Waverley Line, providing faster and more convenient access for locals and students to universities, employment and hospitals to the north and south of Glen Waverley.
Frequent services every few minutes will mean passengers can turn up and go when the new rail line is operating by 2035. It’ll take just 3-4 minutes between stations – a journey from Clayton to the Cheltenham station to go shopping at Southland will take just 7 minutes.

What's happening now
We’re moving underground services and utilities along Coleman Parade and Railway Parade North to make way for construction of the new SRL station and twin tunnels. Crews are also establishing a site on Myrtle Street, with the road closed until late 2024 and pedestrian detours in place.
What's next?
After the most recent rounds of extensive consultation, the final vision for Glen Waverley will be publicly available later this year. This will outline the ideas and opportunities for the area around the new station, informed by feedback from the community, local councils and stakeholders. The draft Structure Plans will go on public exhibition in later 2024 or early 2025, before public hearings by an independent panel in 2025.
It is anticipated Structure Plans and planning scheme amendments for these areas will be finalised in 2026.
