Over the next week there will be extensive work done locally on three main roads in this suburb. Each of the roads will close for 24 hours where the railway level crossing infrastructure will be removed. Buses will replace passenger trains for at least ten days and the existing railway station will be demolished, leaving only the foundations for the new elevated railway station which will come into service on June 3rd, along with another new ground level station a few km further east where a new housing development has needed public transport infrastructure.
At the same time as each rail crossing is removed, crews will be joining the existing twin railway tracks and overhead electrical cables to the new 2.5 km long elevated railway which will replace the three railway crossings and house the new station.
It's going to be a bit hectic over the next couple of weeks but at the end, no vehicle travelling north/south through the area will have to stop for any trains.
