Tender Description
The Victorian Government is upgrading the Shepparton Line to deliver more reliable services and allow modern VLocity trains to travel to Shepparton for the first time.
Work on the Shepparton Line Upgrade has already begun, with $356 million invested in the first two stages of the project, which has already delivered 10 extra services a week between Shepparton and Melbourne. Stage 2 will provide the infrastructure required for VLocity trains to run to Shepparton for the first time. It includes a new stabling facility and platform extensions at key stations to suit the longer VLocity trains, as well as a crossing loop extension at Murchison East to give trains more room to pass each other, boosting reliability on the line.
Fifty-nine level crossings will be upgraded between Donnybrook and Shepparton to make them compatible with VLocity trains and improve safety for train passengers and road users.
The project is being delivered as part of the Regional Rail Revival program. (Shepparton Line Upgrade Projec
