July to October. The level crossing removal at Bondi Road, Bonbeach, will be the 50th completed by the state government. By the end of this year the level crossings at Edithvale Road and Lochiel Avenue in Edithvale, Chelsea Road and Swanpool Avenue in Chelsea, and Bondi Road in Bonbeach will be gone. While the Frankston line work is
underway, the track will be lowered into trenches and three new stations will be built. Premier Daniel Andrews said the Level Crossing Removal Project crews had “done an outstanding job removing 46 level crossings to date and we’re thrilled to remove 50 level crossings by the end of 2021 – one year earlier than we promised.”
Acting transport infrastructure minister Ben Carroll said “we know the coming months will be disruptive and inconvenient for train passengers, road users and the local community as our teams work to remove these level crossings and we thank people for their patience while this important work is underway.” Continued page 8
