Level crossing removals

Incorporated pursuant to order of Council of 7 September 2021:

Last month another level crossing in the west was gone for good. Traffic now flows over a new 70-metre bridge at Fitzgerald Road, Ardeer. The Andrews Labor government has removed 65 dangerous and congested level crossings, with this one delivered six months ahead of schedule.

Next month the Robinsons Road level crossing will become an underpass creating safer and less congested roads for locals, also months ahead of the 2023 schedule. By 2024 the Geelong and Ballarat lines will be free of level crossings between Deer Park and the city.

Works will continue on the Robinsons Road and Mount Derrimut Road level crossings over the coming months, and road users are advised to plan while we safely complete this work.
