Town Hall and Flinders Street stations are connected via the Degraves Street subway, while State Library and Melbourne Central stations share a concourse.
Signage will help passengers navigate between the stations, and you won’t need to tap off and on again when changing between Metro Tunnel and City Loop stations.
Summer Start
From early December to 31 January, during the Summer Start period, additional services on the Cranbourne, Pakenham and Sunbury line will run through the Metro Tunnel instead of the City Loop.
The Big Switch
From 1 February 2026, as part of the Big Switch, all Cranbourne, Pakenham and Sunbury trains will run the Metro Tunnel. Passengers on these lines will need to change at Town Hall or State Library to access City Loop stations.
Passengers can also change at Caulfield, Malvern and Footscray stations for services on other lines running to the City Loop.
