    Coronavirus – COVID-19

    When travelling on public transport, you must wear a fitted face mask covering your nose and mouth and ensure you wear it for your entire journey.

     

    Major works this winter

    As part of Victoria’s Big Build, major works will continue in July and August to remove more than 20 dangerous and congested level crossings, including the Ferguson Street level crossing in Williamstown. The Metro Tunnel, Sunbury Line Upgrade and Regional Rail Revival projects on the Geelong, Warrnambool, Bendigo, Echuca and Swan Hill lines will also progress.
    Critical maintenance works will also take place on our rail and tram networks to ensure services continue to run reliably. There’ll be disruptions to the public transport and road networks while these works take place. Be sure to plan ahead and allow extra time.
